Because you've used two line?
Because you haven't quoted the shell metacharacters (&, ?)?
Because the ASP/CGI/??? application hasn't been written to cope with
GET mode forms (see -post option)?
Because the application is expecting both POST and multipart/form-data?
What version of Lynx?
How exactly is it failing? (Trace output, error messages, environment
variables in the CGI program.)
