[Lynx-dev] lynx beta bug in displaying xhtml5 pages

[Shlomi Fish]

Hi!

The following command:

~/apps/lynx-beta/bin/lynx
https://www.shlomifish.org/philosophy/philosophy/putting-cards-on-the-table-2019-2020/index.xhtml

does not display most of the page's main text which is:

1. XHTML5.
2. validates as XHTML by the W3C validator
3. Has an ".xhtml" extension.

firefox and chromium render it fine.

I built that lynx using
https://github.com/shlomif/shlomif-computer-settings/blob/master/shlomif-settings/build-scripts/build/lynx.sh
:
