google instant search on lynx

Question

Just curious, since google search uses a lot of JS and AJAX, would it ever be possible to make instant search work on a text browser like lynx?

if yes, what would it take?

Answer 1

I suppose it would take adding JS support to lynx? Last I check (and I admit, that was quite a few years ago), lynx didn't have even the beginning of JS support.

Answer 2

You can still execute google searches from Lynx. The instant search and other javascript quietly degrages to "dumb" search mode.
