I made a website using Freeway Pro 7.1.4, it is just the way I want
it to look, but now I need to make some changes. Freeway Pro is for
creating
websites, but doesn't edit them very well, if at all, so I need another,
simple
editor to work on it. When I download the site back to my computer and
open a page,
using "Get HTML", it shows the content, but not the arrangements,
positioning where
things should be. This means that it would be easier to start over from
scratch instead
of trying to get it to work.
So, the question is, if I use Seamonkey to look at the page,will it
do the same thing,
or will it look like it does when viewed in a Browser? I understand that
Seamonkey is a
wysiwyg editor, but if it only shows the HTML as it did in Freeway Pro,
then it won't
be any better than starting from scratch. The original file is on a
computer that died
before I could copy it to this imac I'm using now. When I look at the
mac pro that croaked,
the hard drive in question doesn't always show up, and when it does, I
can read the list
of files, but when I click on one, I can't move it or make a copy,
despite the alert window
that says the hard drive needs repair, but that you can still copy files.
The website is a gallery of prints and paintings, and at present I am
nearing the end of
populating a shopping cart using paGo ecommerce in the CMS app Joomla.
My intention is to
go back to the gallery and place links to the various product pages in
the shopping cart
in the "store" area. The store is made using a Morph template that is a
full website with
plenty of features I don't need. The Quix editor used in Joomla cannot
edit the Freeway pro
pages, so this is getting more and more complex for a mere mortal artist
like myself who made
the first site in Go live nearly twenty years ago in a week, now, with a
hundred pieces of
art to sell, and being responsive, I HAVE EATEN UP SEVERAL YEARS trying
to comply to the
requirements need to finish before I lose my wits, all by myself, with
no guidance or money
to spare while the internet evolves faster than I can complete this
project.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Jan Flechsig

Seamonkey has a few components, but only two of them are relevant here.
- The Browser. It is basically Firefox ESR of a few months back. It's
a bit more complicated than that but that is more detail than you need.
- Composer. This is an html editor, pretty out of date and only
show-stopper bugs are being fixed. It does *not* support css.
I had a look at your site and it makes heavy use of css, sorry but I
don't think Seamonkey is what you are looking for. You can of course
download it and test it but the killer limitation is that Composer does
not know css.
