Re: [Lynx-dev] whichversion of lynx?

[Karen Lewellen]

Hi,
I use lynx daily, and actually have a phone meeting with td bank staff who 
are wanting   the best lynx edition, with this functional :SUBMIT function 
in order to fix the access issues with the script buttons.
I am guessing the new release is not coming tomorrow smiles.
what  version therefore between 2.8.8.dev10 and 2.8.8.dev16 does not 
require this patch?
Or, is the patch already incorporated in 2.8.8dev16, as presently on the 
lynx.browser.org site, only missing from the Shellworld compile?
