Does the Google Chrome browser show Web based Help correctly?

We took a quick look at Google's new Chrome browser this morning. MadCap's Flare Web based Help seems to work fine, but there seems to be a problem with RoboHelp's Web Help - specifically the Table of Contents.

We dragged some old RoboHelp 5 generated Web Help files into the browser, and we looked at some of the examples listed on Adobe's Web site (http://www.adobe.com/products/robohelp/customer_examples/). We haven't had a chance to do any further testing.

Update - The problem is also there with RoboHelp 6 generated Web-based Help.

We suspect it is a JavaScript with Frames issue. The "Section 508" (non-JavaScript) version displays without any problems.
