What are they objecting to? Your site has a few errors but it's no worse than other sites they have accepted.
It seems to be working in Lynx but I only checked it with Browsershots

 

Lynx is an old program,with commands like MS-DOS,in console. Skip this step,only Flash sites can have some problems,not your site.

 

Lynx is still under development and has thousands of users. If people developed sites properly, surfing with lynx would be very enjoyable.

To the OP, I don't know how you installed lynx on windows but normally you could just enter 'lynx site.com' from the command line.

 

if your're on windows, use cygwin to run lynx

 

Thanks, Guys For Your answers.

 

Also, 99% of the time what LYNX will show you is basically the same as the site without it's CSS applied -- which is why it's often just as good a test to load the site in Opera, and go into view -> style -> user mode, which basically kills all the CSS stuff... and why when I make a page I start out by semantically marking up the content with ZERO concern for what it's going to look like styled for just that 'single' perfect width screen target the typical dodo crapping out pretty pictures in photoshop are under the delusion is the be-all end-all of web 'design'.

Which to be frank, your page kind-of suffers from with it's fixed width too big for netbooks, too small for real desktops, fixed metric (aka px) fonts, complete lack of semantic markup, and little if any graceful degradation for scripting off, css off, and dozen other things that make it a complete accessibility train wreck.

Naturally that's par for the course when dealing with the fat bloated rubbish markup that is the default output from Turdpress... and most off the shelf CMS for that matter; what with the endless pointless stupid classes, redundant and pointless use of the TITLE attribute, endless pointless DIV for nothing, completely nonsensical use of heading tags, tables for layout, and countless other things that basically prove the folks making the default Wordpress output don't know enough HTML or CSS to be writing jack.
