In order to view some pages like the Android Market you need to change the User Agent. For example, in Dolphin Mini if you press Menu from the Options Bar and choose user Agent and change it to Desktop the Android Market webpage will display fine. A lot of browsers have this option and people aren't aware of it. My son has to access some of his school textbooks on Elsevier. Right now they only support iPad. Using the Android agent some of the pages have issues. Change the User Agent to iPad and presto the pages work fine.


BTW, I also accessed and browsed the Android Market webpage using Dolphin Mini using Android as the User Agent and was not kicked back to the Amazon App Store. This may be something that happens in Dolphin HD Mobile browser.

I like Dolphin HD mainly because of the Webzine feature which allows me to get free stories from hundred of popular magazines ad free.
