Unfortunately not, because elinks will not show me the full POST query
or write it to a file.
However, it turns out that startpage is also doing user-agent detection.
Do you have a user-agent definition for lynx in your .ebrc? It's in the
default config, so I'm guessing that ua1 will set your user-agent string
to lynx.
They like lynx just fine!
Turns out that they're actively denying form submissions that contain
edbrowse in the user-agent string. I have a third user agent in my
.ebrc, defined as "nunya business", and they like that one just fine as
well.
