I am running BL3.5 and attempting to use the Links2ssl as provided by the
BL page on distro.ibiblio.org. I can enter my ID and password into gmail
but then it goes to a blank page with 3 or 4 lines at the top labeled
"iframe". Clicking on the first one causes a very long download to
begin. Clicking on the others causes a slight delay and then the screen
goes back to "OK" but displays nothing. Attempting to access via another
OS and older browser I see that Google now insists on the latest versions of the
popular browsers. A screen comes up that said "Your browser is obsolete or
unsupported. Please download and install one of these popular browsers
now." The list of browsers shown includes all the usual suspects.
Something called "HTML5" along with _javascript_ is what it wants now.

I used to be able to use Google Mail with
Links2ssl. Now it doesn't seem
to work. Have they
changed something? Is there a "work around"?

In BL2, I just
logged in with a links2-1pre28-java-svgalib-ssl that I
compiled for BL2
with minimal _javascript_, svgalib, and ssl support (but no
X
support).
1.2 pre 28 was the last version with _javascript_.
Links
2.1 pre20 also works, and links 2.2 without _javascript_.
An older
delilinux links2 without ssl support says I have cookies
disabled.
Every other links2 I tried except the one for BL3 (which
requires BL3 x11)
has let me sign in.
What specifically does not
work for you?
lynx also works.
I recall choosing the older
simpler interface (no css?).

Have they changed something? Is there a "work
around"?
I don't use GMail myself anymore, but I have been told
that Google has
been regularly "updating" it's log-in. Part of the reason I
stopped
using it was because I could no longer log-in. Even with
Links2ssl,
which I do use a lot.

I
posted both a links 2.1 and a links 2.2 for glibc 2.2.5 (slackware 8.1)
at
my site http://keesan.freeshell.org/bl both of which sign in at gmail.
The
2.1 includes some _javascript_ support. Neither does x11 but I think
both support svgalib (which does not coexist with
framebuffer).

Hi Alejandro - nice to hear from you again.
DOS hardly
needs all that memory!
Have you tried Arachne at gmail?
elinks
(with ssl) lets me sign in and read my mail.
netrik does not - cannot
handle https, it says. Nor does retawq.
I compiled and posted w3m
versions 0.2.1, 0.4.2, 0.5.2, did not try them.
The latest stable version
0.5.3 is from 2011. Project is still in
progress. Does tables
and cookies, 'authentication', but not _javascript_.
Dillo 0.8.6 (latest
version I could compile, uses GTK 1.2) lets me fill in
login and password
but then nothing happens.
Dillo 2.0 (in puppy linux) gives me a page
with a space for password but
not for login. FLTK-based - would not
compile for me with BL2 for some
reason I forget. Current version is
3.03.
Does GTK 2 (for Firefox newer than 2, Seamonkey 2) require kernel
2.6, or
a newer glibc that requires kernel 2.6? There was some
reason BL2 could
not handle GTK2. Opera 10 needed newer glibc than
2.3.6. Opera 12.10 +
needs glibc 2.8. Opera is abandoning
linux.
