What should the document end with, according to your version?  This?
-- paste apparent end using CCN Beta-Lynx Version 2.7ac-0.36 Int'l.--
    Version: 0.1c - Thursday, 26-Jun-97 21:06:29 CDT
    URL: http://www.freenet.mb.ca/docs/user/guide/index.html
    URL = "http:///docs/user/guide/index.html" For further information
please contact: menu@freenet.mb.ca
------ end paste ----
The first hyperlink worked, several following did not :(

Netscape 3.0 shows the same end, and a couple of randomly chosen #links
worked there.

On the other hand  (Lynx Version 2.7.1ac-0.20) built for Win 95 stopped in
the middle of the registration form :( and only the first hyperlink worked
(the others jumped back to the top, perhaps as if the link were not
found.)

As a further note, we occasionally saw, in the early days of running
CSuite Build under Lynx, that the links stopped working after the "watch
the progress" document reached about 200 pages or so.  I don't know
whether we were able to find a fix to this or not.  CAN ANYBODY ELSE
REPORT on that?

Your document, at 175984 bytes (according to Netscape) must be pushing
that same sort of limit.
