The problem was that the WebBrowser ActiveX Control in Microsoft Access maintains compatibility with older versions by using an ancient IE7 rendering engine. If you have control over the page being displayed in the control, you can force it to use a more current rendering engine. This is the line that I added to the top of the header in my page:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" /> Now the page renders perfectly and displays exactly as it does in the most current Edge browser version installed on the computer.
