Dear lynx users. I see more and more web sites (e.g. run by GSB, the "Government Site Builder", as used by the German government) that use custom elements like <pp-link href="..."> The pp-link element is turned into an a-element via JavaScript. The funny thing is that they claim this complexity is done for the purpose of accessibility regulation in the EU :-) This works in browsers with JavaScript, but not in textual browsers. Can I inform lynx that <pp-link> is like <a> so that - detection of hyperlinks - extraction of hyperlinks via lynx -dump ... - etc. work? Greetings Sven
