3) Sea Monkey

SeaMonkey is a free, open source, and cross-platform Internet suite. It is the continuation of the former Mozilla Application Suite, based on the same source code. SeaMonkey consists of a web browser (SeaMonkey Navigator), which is a descendant of the Netscape family, an e-mail and news client program (SeaMonkey Mail & Newsgroups, which shares code with Mozilla Thunderbird), an HTML editor (SeaMonkey Composer) and an IRC client (ChatZilla).

“suiterunner” is an internal code-name for the future version of SeaMonkey based on the “new toolkit”, i.e. the same backend code already used by Firefox, Sunbird and for the most part also Thunderbird. The name is intentionally derived from “XULRunner”, as the long-term goal of this project is to make SeaMonkey a XULRunner-based application.

4) Galeon

Galeon is a web browser for GNOME based on Mozilla’s Gecko layout engine. Galeon’s self-declared mission was to deliver “the web and only the web.”At the time of Galeon’s creation, the most popular web browsers, including Netscape, Mozilla, and Internet Explorer, were large multi-functional programs. This made them slow to start and often impractical due to their high memory usage and processor requirements. Galeon was the first mainstream graphical web browser which specifically focused on the reduction of peripheral functionality. Galeon is also notable for introducing “Smart Bookmarks,” bookmarks that take an argument and can be used as toolbar buttons with a text field used to enter the value for the argument.

* CSS 2.1: supported (paged media only partially supported)
* CSS 3 Selectors: supported
* CSS 3 (other)
