Does anyone know of a Mac web browser that can view XML web pages?
They all can.
The site author says that Mac OS requires plain html.
The site author is an ignorant moron.
Here's a page (admittedly a simple example) that is 100% pure XML, no HTML at all:
http://www.xml.com/2000/03/29/tutorial/examples/books2.xml
Note that every browser you mentioned can open it.
The problem here is not the use of XML, but the use of SLOPPY, POORLY WRITTEN xml. IE is notoriously bad (or good, depending on how you look at it) for compensating for sloppy code. Standards-compliant browsers like Safari/Firefox/et al generally don't compensate well, because they expect properly-written code.
If you'll share the URL of the site with us, perhaps some of us can offer concurrence that the problem is the site author rather than any shortcoming in Macs.
