Safari composer?
« on: September 10, 2006, 05:34:33 PM »
I currently use Netscape Composer (It's in Netcape 7) to edit my webpages from my Mac, System 9.2.2 . If I changed to Safari (because I've been told its better to use Safari with System 10), does Safari have a similar feature that would enable me to edit my webpages? Thanx.

Nothing in Safari at the moment, but Nvu is the open-source outgrowth of Composer. smile.gif

You can download it here:

I started out using (in OS 8.6 & now in OS 9.2.2) Netscape to develop & maintain my web sites. I now use Mozilla as my primary browser in OS 9.2.2. Mozilla also has a composer feature. In OS X, I use Firefox as my browser, but it doesn't have a composer feature. You might download Mozilla for OS X & see if it has a composer feature.
Cheers, Tom

Mozilla for OSX does have a composer. Although I have not used it.

I use Mozilla for OSX all the time to edit my website... it works very well for the limited amount of editing I understand!!!

I have found that the site is viewed well with all the Mac browsers I have, which include Mozilla, Opera, Firefox, Netscape, Explorer...

I haven't opened up anything in 9x for a while, but the last time I did, Mozilla Composer seemed to work quite well.

Never used Composer in Netscape or Mozilla... figured I didn't know music well enough. wink.gif Now I find out it's for web design. I still won't use it, since I don't know that either! But, I've always liked having one application to do several things - at least both e-mail and web browsing.
