[arm-allstar] Configure node in the field

[David McGough]

Hi Tony.

I'm not familiar with the "elinx" text browser. Do you have a URL for it; 
I'll take a look.

I believe "elinks" does support JS in a rudimentary form, but I don't know 
if that capability is enabled by default for the ARM platform.

repository is not javascript-capable, if you would be so kind as to 
verify for yourself.
