My apologies, I was thinking of a different site instead. I now recall: http://ilias.ca/blog/2007/05/want-to-take-over-seamonkeyiliasca/ And the thread in dev.apps.seamonkey where Asrail offered to help: [New SeaMonkey website - ready for prime time?] <quote> > Chris Ilias, 13-11-2007 01:04: >> > On 11/12/07 8:41 AM, _Robert Kaiser_ spoke thusly: >>> >> We don't use any SSI on seamonkey-project.org, but we have the >>> >> template toolkit available, which can do really great things, actually. >> > >> > Okay, my use of SSI is actually a lot more than templates.

I'll be more than happy to help if I possibly can. I know nothing about coding a website. However if there is a channel/group/contact for testing, proof reading, assisting then I'm quite willing to learn & help if I can. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
