    SeaMonkey is a browser; similar to Thunderbird or Firefox. While it does contain some web tools, it contains NO more than something like the inspector in Firefox, and is no where near as robst. It is not a WYSIWYG editor like BlueGriffon.

    SeaMonkey is just a browser

    SeaMonkey is my typical "go to" for WYSIWYG editing of HTML. While it is a browser, it contains a "Composer" feature that opens the WYSIWYG interface. It might not be as robust as BlueGriffon, but I'm not going to use a WYSIWYG editor for a robust project.

    It is the same code, but all features are free. It is WYSIWYG editing. The only bad thing - it is no longer being developed.

    OpenElement works only with its own project files. You can't simply open your existing web pages in OE. So, rather than OE being a replacement for BG, I would have to re-create my big website complex in OE from scratch, albeit importing the text and bits and pieces.
