Web Pages in a Field

[Martin Baxter]

Tom,

If I can step in here, I had a look at the Sony page in question, and the
problem is the way the page is written, RR can't cope with it.

The page is in xhtml-transitional not html, and has some usages which will
fail in older browsers, and an RR text field counts as one of those I'm
afraid.

AltBrowser should cope OK.
