Hi P5, BrowserComponent on Android is nothing more than a native window into a webview.
Testing embedded html in any app needs to be done directly on a device, because each device uses a different browser engine to render (ios uses safari, Android uses Chrome). This isn't an issue with CN1, CN1 doesn't own Apple/Google and can't be held responsible for issues there.
