NO!  The error occurs IN the HTML code.  Lynx is implementing UNDEFINED
in a perfectly reasonable way.

E.g. quoting from HTML 4.0 (draft 8 July 1997):

   The A element
....
   name = cdata
      This attribute indicates that the element is being used to define
      an anchor.  The value of this attribute is a unique anchor name.  The
                                                   ^^^^^^
      scope of this name is the current document.  Note that this attribute
      shares the same name space as the id attribute.

(My ^^^^^)
