The SeaMonkey Suite

SeaMonkey has inherited the successful all-in-one concept of the original Netscape Communicator and continues that product line based on the modern, cross-platform architecture provided by the Mozilla project.

  • The Internet browser at the core of the SeaMonkey suite uses the same rendering engine and application platform as its sibling Mozilla Firefox, with popular features like tabbed browsing, feed detection, popup blocking, smart location bar, find as you type and a lot of other functionality for a smooth web experience.
  • SeaMonkey's Mail and Newsgroups client shares lots of code with Mozilla Thunderbird and features adaptive Junk mail filtering, tags and mail views, web feeds reading, tabbed messaging, multiple accounts, S/MIME, address books with LDAP support and is ready for both private and corporate use.

SeaMonkey is powered by Gecko,the second most-popular layout engine on the World Wide Web, after Trident (used by Internet Explorer for Windows since version 4), and followed by WebKit (used by Safari & Google Chrome) and Presto (used by Opera).

Gecko is primarily used in web browsers, the earliest being Netscape 6 and Mozilla Application Suite (later renamed SeaMonkey). It is also used in other Mozilla web browser derivatives such as Firefox, Camino, Flock, K-Meleon and the version of Internet Explorer that runs under Wine.

Google's picture-organization software Picasa (for Linux) is based on Gecko.

DevHelp, a GTK+/GNOME browser for API documentation, uses Gecko for rendering docs.

Other products based on Gecko include Swiftfox, Portable Firefox, Fennec, Conkeror, Classilla, TenFourFox, HP Secure Web Browser, Oxygen, Minimo, My Internet Browser, Sylera (for mobile), Thunderbird (email), Sunbird (calendar) and Instantbird.

Gecko is also used by Sugar for the OLPC XO-1 computer.  Gecko is used as a complete implementation of the XUL (XML User Interface Language). Gecko currently defines the XUL specification.

And, yet, YOU do not acknowledge the existence of SeaMonkey in your web page sniffers.  Is that because your web pages do not comply with W3C (http://www.w3.org/) standards for XML, HTML, and/or CSS?  Standards are set for a reason and if standards are followed by web page designers and software programmers there would be no problems displaying or navigating ANY web page with ANY browser.
