Why is the Add To OnSong action importing a web page in a way that is misaligning or missing content?

The Add To OnSong action in Safari tries to determine the best and most suitable content in the web page HTML code to import. For most standard formatted web pages, this should work well, but the availability and quality of the content is dependent on the web site design and terms of use.  For instance, a web site may need to protect their content, or just used a strange way to render the lyrics and chords to the page.  In that case, OnSong may import the content in ways that are not ideal.  You can then use the Song Editor in OnSong to tweak the content to work best in OnSong.
