You aren't being blocked per se; I get the same message,
and I don't believe in coincidences.
There is something else amiss about the way we submit that query.
Probably should run it with db4,
especially noting the redirection to smartpage,
and compare that with what happens in another browser.

I can't get onto that site any more. Here is what happens when I try. The
references to Whittier Place, or Whittier Health Center, are references to
the wifi service here, my only access to the net at present.

I get the same thing, even when JavaScript is disabled.
My guess is that they're expecting some form field that we're not
sending. It's supposed to be filled in by JavaScript, and if we don't
send it, they assume that we're using some kind of automation to access
their site. Automation usually isn't "smart" enough to run JavaScript.
And our JS implementation is hitting a snag somewhere, failing to fill
in that field.
I'd try this in Chromium with ChromeVox, but I have no way to see what
query the browser is sending to the server. If this were a plain http
connection, I'd dump the traffic to a file with tcpdump and extract what
I need. But it's https. I'm looking into mitmproxy, which may help me
to examine the traffic.

Can you use elinks for this purpose? Elinks works on startpage.

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.

Chris,
Yes, ua1 identifies me as a lynx browser, it lets me in, and the submit
button works as expected. Below is the script:

Then that is the behavior I should probably replicate, i.e. create
the named link unless it is submit, reset, or action.
I'm pretty sure I wrote that code seven years ago for a reason.
So I'll make that change, with comments, and push.
Here is how I think it all evolves.
Some website that is really popular, like facebook, for example,
has some bogus html or bogus javascript.
Firefox, for example, doesn't want to be the new browwser on the block
that can't run facebook.
So they deliberately program around the bogus js or html code in facebook.
And that gives facebook no insentive to clean up their code.
It just goes on, across many websites that are too big to fail.
Over two decades, all these little exceptions are programmed into
all the browsers out there, and they aren't documented anywhere in
any reliable way,
so if we're serious about edbrowse we have to rediscover all these exceptions
and program them into our DOM.
As Charlie Brown says, oh good grief.

I don't know. I've been looking for live examples, but I haven't found
one yet.
But here's some text I found that mentions the submit method of form
objects:
"If a form control (such as a submit button)
has a name or id of submit it will mask the form's submit method."
Source: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFormElement.submit
It isn't the behavior I see in Chromium, where a form element with
id=submit does not mask document.form.submit, but a form element with
id=foo is available as document.form.foo.
I also need to get a handle on the DOM specifications.
Wow, what a mess the web is. I'm amazed it holds together as well as it does.

I pushed the aforementioned change to comment out my line of code,
because clearly it must not run on this website,
and perhaps it shouldn't run at all.
Startpage with db3 now sends your request with no js errors,
but I always get the "overuse" page back instead of the google response.
Don't know why.

Nope, sorry, that dog won't hunt.
Here's a test page:
http://the-brannons.com/form.html
I fetched this in Chromium, setting the text field to "hello, world" and
submitted.
document.writeln wrote the line
"You said: hello, world".
When I view it with edbrowse after applying your recent change, I get an
error. document.someform.random is undefined.
I don't know how mainstream browsers deal with this problem, either,
but I think we'll probably have to do something like what Adam
mentioned. In domLink, refuse to overwrite owner.id if owner.id points
to a standard method.
I know how to implement this, if we go that route.
PS. On another topic, I'm running edbrowse with mozjs-24 as packaged by
Gentoo. So at least one distribution's package works with what we have.
