I don't know, you'd have to test the page in your browser.

I do know that hacking will allow you to install the skipstone broswer or midori, both of which I find better/more comfortable to use than the builtin one for numerous reasons (which may or may not have any bearing on your specific need).

You could also install kterm (terminal emulator) available on the same site as skipstone, the same page has elinks (terminal browser) bundled for the Kindle OS, which may or may not be useful, or cURL which is definitely on my kindle (although for all I know, it was one of the hack I use which installed it).
You might also want to see what can be done using remote connections e.g. via ssh (there is a USBNetwork hack which can be configured to use over WiFi).
