Comment *Any* web browser? (Score 1) 456
First off, PDF is of course misnamed, because there are of course no decent viewers for a text-only system.
That out of the way, let's talk about this "any web browser" thing.
Javascript? Yes, you can insert all the hate about Javascript and lack of security here if you like, but I don't need to worry about. You see, my browser is immune to such problems. It's lynx.
Lynx is no longer a browser? That's what your article seems to imply. The anti-lynx FUD is a little ridiculous these days. I've been told lynx doesn't support graphics, lynx doesn't support https urls, lynx doesn't this, lynx doesn't that. It gets old, certainly. But I hadn't yet heard that someone decided lynx was no longer a web browser.
"Learn to {cough} 'program' (or at least write Javascript) using *certain* web browsers, only *if* you happen to be on a machine that supports PDF."
That one looks accurate.
