I don't understand you problem.

Are you able to see your page in Safari at all? If so, then the  
technique works, regardless of where the site is hosted. The technique  
gathers the HTML that is generated into an email. It is no longer  
dynamic content, although links *within* the page may not work --  
there's no way around that!

If you are not able to see your page in Safari, you have an entirely  
different problem.
