Is there any way to access the page without the frames? Perhaps find the url for the main part of the page?
Now I know what is going on and the limitations I'm happy - the site I used to test it was just one of my own websites so not actually one I want to access in reality from the Glo when I have a 9.7" Android tablet that will cope with the SVG pages etc on the site.

I was originally hacked off because I wanted to connect to a public Wi-Fi to synch the Glo and it brought up the browser to authenticate, but I could never get that to work. When I did some further checks and found I couldn't scroll the frames on my own pages I formed a negative opinion of the browser. The concept of the Glo needing the browser to connect to a public Wi-Fi and the browser being "unsupported" by Kobo I wasn't surprised that other things might be broken.
