Re: [docbook-apps] need help with browser id test

[Michael Smith <smith@xml-doc.org>]

For the record...

I tried with the latest versions of the lynx, links, and w3m (all
console/tty browsers). Linking to id values works as expected in
all of them

Anyway, if somebody is using a browser that is so old as not to
support linking to id values, I think they will run into so many
other deficiencies in that browser that the lack of id linking
will be the least of their problems
