Does any version of mozilla work with system 7.5(and in best situation 7.1)? If not is there any open source graphical web browser for system 7? |

Classilla is (and will not be) available for System 7. At least that is what the programer, Cameron Kaiser, stated a while ago. To the best of my knowledge, there is also no open source browser in development - the closest to what you are looking for would be an old version of Netscape. I think version 4.8 is the last one that should run on System 7...

Idea was to make a project like classilla but for system 7 instead of os 9, so open source is must. But if there is not any I should start from the beginning and write my own.

Sounds great. I think you should get in touch with Cameron Kaiser and talk about your plans. He has great experience in programming Classilla for OS 8.6 - 9.2.2 and TenFourFox (for 10.4 Tiger). He might give you some good advice and hints. http://www.classilla.org

It really isn't going to happen. That Classilla guy isn't building current Mozilla for OS 9, he's simply tweaking the old Mac OS 9/8.6 builds that Mozilla was already producing at the time to sortof render more reliably and to modern-ish standards. It would be an entirely different undertaking to make it run under System 7, probably requiring a team of dedicated developers and actual funding.
