What WYSIWYG to Use

We suggest that Rochester School District employees and students use SeaMonkey HTML editor. SeaMonkey HTML editor is included in the SeaMonkey browser. This is an open source browser which makes both the browser and composer free to all users. SeaMonkey is the new name for and replaces Mozilla. Unlike Mozilla and the older version of Netscape composer, which we were previously using, SeaMonkey uses cutting edge technology and it does not cause conflicts with our network. If you are still using Netscape Composer, please discontinue its use now. You may continue Using SeaMonkey Composer if it is installed on your computer. If it is not installed on your computer, contact the CIC and will arrange the installation of SeaMonkey. The interface of the these editors is almost exactly the same so you should have no problem with the transition. If you would like to know more about the development of SeaMonkey, visit their site.

If you want to create your web page using HTML code you may do that using notepad or Word Pad. If you are thinking about using another program that is not installed on your school computer contact the webmaster@rochesterschools.com for assistance.

Remember, you must have a licensed copy of the software and most licenses cover installation on one machine only.
