I agree that it wasn't implemented very well, but the idea there isn't to make WORD into a browser. It's to allow you to edit the html with a WhatYouSeeIsWhatYouGet interface. Some people, mainly those without any knowledge of html or interest in learning it, greatly prefer being able to edit web pages in this manner. My biggest problem with using Word to edit html is all the crap code it sticks in there. Meta tags out the wazoo.
I am pretty sure that Word 2000 and later will let you look at the html in text view won't it? That should give you what you want if it does.
