[jira] [Comment Edited] (SOLR-5185) Core Selector not compatible
with text based web browsers (lynx/elinks).
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5185?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13748651#comment-13748651 ]

I can't speak for [~steffkes], who does most of our UI work, but I suspect that the current level of functionality would be very difficult to achieve in a way that's compatible with a text browser.
If you're trying to use a text-based browser, It's unlikely that you are running Solr on Windows. If you have ssh access to the server from a graphical client, you can forward a local port to the Solr port on the remote system, and then access localhost:port/solr in a graphical browser on the machine making the ssh connection. This works with PuTTY as well as virtually all commandline ssh clients. If access requires a multi-hop ssh, you can do a port-forwarding chain. It can be a little confusing to set up a port-forwarding chain, but it does work.

If you're trying to use a text-based browser, the chance of it running on Windows is pretty small. If you have ssh access to the server from a graphical client, you can forward a local port to the Solr port on the remote system, and then access localhost:port/solr in a graphical browser on the machine making the ssh connection. This works with PuTTY as well as virtually all commandline ssh clients. If access requires a multi-hop ssh, you can do a port-forwarding chain.
