Hi. Last night I tried to help my friend install Sea Monkey on his Apple Mac so he can use Mozilla Composer to create and edit html files. We appeared to successfully install Sea Monkey for Mac OS, but when we tried to open a (very, very) simple html file that I had just created in Mozilla Composer on my PC it would not open it. Every time we tried we got a dialog box saying something like: "This is a binary file. Do you want to: (a) Open it; or (b) Save it." -When we clicked on 'Open' we got the usual list of programs, but Mozilla Composer was not one of them. Actually, Sea Monkey was on the list but when we clicked on that it was opened automatically in Safari browser (which was already loaded on his system prior to my intervention) - When we clicked on 'Save' it appeared to save the file successfully. But trying, subsequently, to open that file with Mozilla Composer still produced the same issues. QUESTIONS: 1) Is there a way to get Mozilla Composer (instead of Safari) to open html files? 2) If not, will it help if my friend to uninstalls Safari? NOTE: I know there are other free html editors that he could install instead, but I'm familiar with Mozilla Composer and I will have to train him on basic web page building, so it would be great if we could use this. Btw, I know nothing about Macs and my friend, though he owns one, knows very little about them. Thank you!!!!
Open Safari, go to Preferences and under General name SeaMonkey as the Default Browser in place of Safari, this may solve the problem.
