Perhaps I'm recalling incorrectly but doesn't elinks have java support?

Dear all,

Old version of links browser (links, not lynx) had javascript somewhat working.

links dropped javascript support after version links-2.1pre18.

The links-2.1pre18.tar.bz2 I still have in my home has SHA1sum
118a1b59e084b027318adc895aa69fa778c45f86, and this checksum was posted
back in 2005 on
https://frugalware.org/pipermail/frugalware-darcs/2005-September/004460.html

Good luck.

If anybody ever tries this, the edbrowse project already did some work
they'll not need to duplicate.  What edbrowse parsed out of the
javascript corpus and enabled support for was all functions in the
javascript corpus it makes sense for users of character based terminals
to have available and did not support the graphical terminal specific
functions.  Have there been updates to javascript since edbrowse did
this?  I don't know but this may provide a good launch point.

No, there have never been plans to include JS in Lynx.
