How about just saving the page, changing the extension to .html (if it's not already) and then open the the file?

Yes, that should work. In fact, that's what I was doing on the laptop before I discovered the Force Content Type addon.

The mobile service requires me to use an HTTP proxy. I'm not sure exactly what this proxy does but one effect is to mangle the XML code for sites which use XHTML. Firefox (laptop) and MicroB (N810) just give an XML parsing error. This applies to very many sites - this forum for example.
This is a known problem amongst Greek geeks and their work-round, apparently, is to use Opera which has a 'reparse as HTML' facility.
I have part-solved this in Firefox on the laptop by using the Force Content Type addon. I change all content from application/xhtml+html (which causes gecko to parse XML) to text/html. ('Part solved' because although I can now display XHTML sites but some of them don't work: eg. I can view but cannot update my own wordpress blog.)
So there are, I think, 3 possible solutions on my N810:
- use Opera. Can I do that?
- implement a 'reparse as HTML' facility in MicroB, like Opera has
- implement the Force Content Type addon. It that easy?
Any comments welcome. At the moment the laptop is usable but the N810 is not.
