At 12:17 a +0000 06/08/2007, Thorsten Glaser didst inscribe upon an electronic papyrus:

Rashmi Rubdi dixit:

 I'm trying to test an html page with Lynx to see if Lynx tries to make
 additional connections to get an iFrame  or external javascript or
 external image src , if the html page contains those elements.

Of course not.

And Lynx doesn't need to prefetch (is that the term?) anything, because it is so fast. The browsers which have that feat^H^H^H^Hbehavior are slow, and are prefetching in order to "appear" faster. Lynx only fetches what you ask for, and does it nicely fast. No muss, no fuss. Just the text, ma'am. :D
