KOMPOZER REVIEWS 2013 CODE

You can view and edit the HTML code if, for example, you need to add Google Analytics code or another piece of code that adds extra features to your website, by clicking on the HTML Tags tab at the bottom of the KompoZer window. KompoZer is a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) HTML editor, which means that you create your page in a word processor-like interface, and the HTML coding is done automatically in the background by the software. If all this seems confusing, that’s because it is! All you have to remember, however, is that for open-source office applications for the Mac, NeoOffice is the way you want to go, and for open-source HTML editors for the Mac, the best choice is definitely KompoZer. Unlike NeoOffice however, which is exclusively for the Mac, KompoZer is cross-platform and runs on both Macs and PCs. OpenOffice came first, and NeoOffice was spun off of it by other volunteers. The situation around KompoZer is something like that of NeoOffice, which is an updated version of OpenOffice (recently renamed LibreOffice). (In fact, Nvu has now been discontinued.) I have tried all three, and while the interface of the three programs is very similar, KompoZer works best in my experience. What’s the difference between them? KompoZer is the most actively updated and most bug free. These are all based on the Composer component of the Mozilla Application Suite and Gecko 1.7 (and they all have a Mac version). You might even see some references to an editor called Sea Monkey. You might see some references on Mac websites to an HTML editor called NVU (pronounced N-view). Open-Source means the programming work is done by volunteers and it’s totally free (although donations are accepted). KompoZer is an open-source program based on the old Netscape Composer.
