The home-banking-portal of my bank locked me out automatically after only a few seconds since I entered my credentials and was lead to the initial page, where I would have wanted to choose a function.
As this was a new problem that I had never encountered before, I verified my cookie-settings, noted down all my observations and wrote an email to the bank. The first response by a woman that I happen to know, even though the bank is not in the same country as myself, was ignoring all...

There are two ways to enable URI passing in elinks, the menu way, and the editor way. I'll be using the editor way here....
