OK, I had a look at this now.

Your file is well-formed XML, but neither valid for webbrowsers
(due to the omission of the space before “/>” self-closing tags)
nor actually valid for any XHTML DTD because you self-close tags
that MUST NOT be self-closed.

A simple change of…

	<script src="../../js/main_all.js"/>

… to…

	<script src="../../js/main_all.js"></script>

… fixes the latter error and makes lynx display your file.

Please fix your website generator to make your pages actually valid:

<!-- only EMPTY tags are allowed to be self-closed:
     area base br col hr img input link meta param -->

All other tags MUST NOT be self-closed.
