That's because HN uses an image tag to do the nesting and apparently elinks ignores the width property on image tags.


I'm quite disappointed that this is the case. I don't expect a crazy parallax motion-sickness inducing css3 but I do expect decent markup.

I was disappointed when you said they used images.

I was more disappointed when I looked at the source and realised it's nested tables.

For shame, HN. For shame.


If it bothers you submit a pull request that fixes it.


To where?

As far as I know, the current version of HN isn't open source.


Indeed it definitely isn't.


To elinks.


Wondering how involved it would be to add a script to do that in elinks.


in ~/.elinks/hooks.pl: http://pastebin.com/P4frn4N7


Awesome, thanks.
