I need to know if I can put an older version Netscape that includes the composer on a CD and use it to update pages that were built over 5 year period. Working actually from the CD or someway.

I have XP now with NS 8.0.3.3 and was told I couldn't have 2 versions on my one Directory hard-drive.

I desperately need use of the Composer - any ideas how I can do it?

How about trying the Nvu composer? It's based on Netscape 7.2's Composer and very good by sign.

You can have as many versions of Netscape installed as you like. Many of them can even be run simultaneously. I have dozens of versions installed on the same PC without any problems.

I tried the Nvu and it is the closest I have found to
the old composer. Thank you, I had not heard of this program.


I spoke with 2 people at HP and 1 at Netscape. They each were from the Tech. Dept. and told me that any version I added would overwrite the other one.

I believe it was because of the Windows XP program.

Thanks, guys

I run multiple versions of Netscape. You just have to make sure they install in different directories. When the installer runs, specify a new directory, like Netscape_versionnumber.

Thanks Cathy, I have the CD for the NS6 and if you and others are running 2 versions without conflict, it wouldn't
hurt to install seperately and try it. I can always remove the version 6.
