Washing html

Washing html

[Pete Axon]

When I try to wash html in Gnus I get a ``Cannot open load file: w3''
error. Does anyone have any idea whats going on here?

I have Gnus 21 and w3m emacs installed.

Try 

  (setq mm-text-html-renderer 'w3m)

in your .gnus file. If you have no w3m-emacs and you have only w3m in
your system, then you may try just 'w3m-standalone instead. Some might
dislike w3m-emacs. If you have more questions then try

C-h v mm-text-html-renderer

and see other options.

I already had that set.

This gives me a ``not documented as a variable'' message

Did you try it in gnus? This variable is not defined in lisp mode
where you possibly tried it editing .gnus. Try C-h v in gnus for this
variable. It should help.

Sorry that it did not help though. It should not use w3 if you did not
set this somehow. Did you try w3m-standalone?

I have the following progs installed and everything works fine

emacs-22.1.tar.gz  
emacs-w3m-1.4.4.tar.gz  
libgc_6.4.orig.tar.gz
muse-latest.tar.gz  
randomsig.el  
w3m-0.5.2.tar.gz 

as you may note, not all of them are required for html, but I list
them for completeness

Here is .gnus with much snipped but you should be able to glean what
you need  from here

I had this exact problem, and I fixed it by changing my .emacs file to
have this line:

(setq mm-text-html-renderer 'lynx) 

Basically, I changed the browser. Works fine now.
I also took out the similar line in .gnus, which had the reference to
w3m-standalone.

Hope this helps.

You need to upgrade Gnus.  The latest stable released version is:

Yes I did try it while in the gnus *Group* buffer. Maybe, as Katsumi
says, I need to upgrade gnus.

Here is what I have in my .emacs file
;; w3m
(require 'w3m-load)
; Use w3m to browse urls
(setq browse-url-browser-function 'w3m)

and this is in my .gnus file
;; Use w3m to display html
(setq gnus-button-url 'browse-url-generic)
(setq mm-text-html-renderer 'w3m)
(setq mm-inline-text-html-with-images t)
(setq mm-inline-large-images t)

I did try that as suggested, no good though.

Now I also think so. Good luck. If you would just update GNU Emacs,
you would get new Gnus as well.

Sorry. It seems that indeed that variable is not defined in older
Gnusae.

I'll try doing that then, thanks everyone for the responses.
