Description (last modified by )
When viewing a milestone in lnks (a command line browser for GNU/Linux) you cannot edit or delete as the buttons to do so do not display.
This probably effects other user agents.

Whoops, sorry, just realized that "links" was actually correct…
- Lynx → http://lynx.browser.org/, the old, venerable, console-based web browser
- links → http://links.twibright.com/, is a (more recent) web browser running in both graphics and text mode.

You will find that the issue is with Trac, not with links.
cboos, please don't marginalise links users because you your self do not user that particular browser. I tend to rely on lynx to browse a remote Trac over SSH. There are many other users who may use similar user agents for assistive reasons.

Well, I understand your point, and we (the team) agree with you as we (for example) don't rely on Javascript for the base functionality exactly for this reason. However, we probably also lack the resources to test everything with all browsers.

I'm also trying to use trac with links(1) and still doesn't work. In my case I haven't tried milestons, but really can't edit an issue state nor I can add comments. It's really important to me.

Sorry, I was misleaded. I can actually edit milestones with:
links-2.1-pre37 trac-0.11.7
I can also edit an issue state and add comments. Looks like this issue can be closed.

Thanks for the feedback.
Indeed there are some issues with Lynx, with forms. Needs to be investigated further (one day ;-) ).
