Yes it does.

Lynx 2.8.x is modern. The site is broken.

What's with the nested framesets?

Help on putting counter on site required.

Why do you need a counter?

Hello Satya, I have 2.8.4(dev16) version of Lynx. The Browser does not support Frames in the conventional way as supported by netscape 4.77 or IE5.5 or Mozilla 0.7 and higher versions of these browsers. Since the tutorials use a lot of images, using a Frame reduces Programming time. Secondly on downloads of a page, only a part of the actual page is downloaded from the internet, thereby saving on bandwidth. On trying with the above version of Lynx which is text based, I found that I could navigate further by selecting bottom frame but was stuck ahead as the <a href="#" onClick="top.location='karnalawebsite/index.html'"> command was not supported.

The display of the message indicates that the browser does not support frames in the conventional way. try using Netscape 4.77 which is given free with most Distro's But Mozilla 0.7 or Netscape 6 are recommended as they give the best results.

Please note that after the discussion at the Online meet in August, I saved a lot of images in PNG format, and neither Netscape 4.77, nor IE5.5 provide proper support for PNG format. In IE5.5 and Netscape 4.77, the transparencies on the images appear as grey or white patches.

This is a totally graphic intensive site which requires a browser capable of displaying graphics. Javascript has also been liberally used, so support for that is also required.

Counter is required to find out number of hits.

Thanks for viewing the site and replying.
