connect to a remote account using a text browser.....
is it possible to coonect to a remote account using a text browser without the use of ftp... but using the httpd address. to be more precise is there any way to directly connect throught ssh in the text browser itself.. (using a lynx elinks browser).

You cannot connect to a remote server for a command session via lynx - you should be looking towards ssh.

You can't (without the use of a Java SSH client) connect to a remote server via Lynx (or another browser) to conduct command line sessions.

Use lynx for browsing the web; ssh for command line sessions; ftp (or sftp) for file transfer. Each tool has a purpose.

Cheers
