Dork. <g>

Actually, though, I'm coding up a blog right now, and everything works 
with Lynx... huzzah! I found a neat little trick somewhere on the web 
for the comment things that have required items... all you do is drop in 
the normal asterisk, which implies it's required, then put a 'shim' 
image that's 1px transparent with an alt tag of 'required'. That way, 
Lynx renders it as
  * required Name: __________
, and normal browers just show the * Name: [             ]

Perty slick, eh? :)
