I am trying to log in my site using lynx text-based browser in some occasion.
But it seems like not working for me. It stays at login page even my credentials are correct. I tried logging to drupal.org, it is working fine.
I am wondering if there are any settings I need to configure. Because it is working fine on Drupal 5 based websites.
I am currently on Drupal 6.6.
Thanks.

This is web 2.0, why you are still using lynx browser ? Use Firefox or something. I tried Lynx browser, its really crap to use lynx wit D6.
I know many people who use lynx routinely (myself included). Blind people in text environments, and as stated, people who do a lot of server console work, often have reason to use it, as well as other such text browsers.
There is another theory to consider: if D6 is accessible with lynx, then it is accessible with anything, and people with disabilities will not have problems using it in any environment. Yeah, dreams dreams dreams.

Well, I used lynx for years because until 3 4 years ago, for visual impaired was difficult to use firefox or internet explorer. Now, if things are not changed, the major problem of lynx is that was unable to manage java or javascript. Do you think that the login form use a javascript? If yes, this problem could be solved implementinga login alternative method that doesn't use javascript. Lynx supports well cookies.
I imagine this is not very important for many people, but I must underline that drupal is the more accessible big cms that I have used.

If d.o is indeed using D5, I would think "ability to work with Lynx" is about reason number 745 why that would be so. And I would think "D6 is a bug-ridden nightmare that the drupal politburo will erase from the history books in about 2010" is a far more likely reason.

I've logged into several of our recent D6 deployments using Lynx. My guess would be that there is some theme, or module, javascript firing somewhere during the login process on your site.

When you were using lynx, did you do like this:

I like to turn off forum comment moderation, so comments can be published without approval.
Currently I am using Drupal 6.6
Hi there,
Just change it in the permissions section.
If you cannot find the permission section... there is a link to it right in the header of the modules section.
You should have two boxes to tick: tick users can make comments ... just un-tick can post comments without approval or so... make sure to set the permissions for all groups (anonymous / authenticated user etc..)
I hope it helps.

I enabled module and configured permission, I still don't see ability of upload attachment when I post comments.
there is not link on Navigation panel indicating comment upload, and I get page not found error when I manually typeed "comment_upload/js" in url.
Can anyone give me hints? Many thanks
when I search for "admin", it only returns content with "admin" in it. if I search for "administrator", results only have "administrator" in it.
Is there code I need to modify to get this fixed?

I don't see anything wrong; they are different searches and you indicate that the search results are correct.

I like to replace username in search result with user alias which I added to user table.
I know that $result['user'] in function mytheme_search_result(&$variables) {

Has anyone implemented any kind of Return Material Authorization RMA in ubercart or ecommerce?
Hi,
In e-Commerce there is no specific handling of this, except for the transaction canel status. But to add something like this would not be very hard at all.

It also seems like something that could be built in a custom manner for a specific site with workflow, workflow actions, and a little glue code.
