For Firefox, the logic for setting preferences is not intuitive to me
and the defaults are horrible. It downloads to the desktop by default
and I had to hunt for where the desired preference was located.

I use Seamonkey/mozilla for editing in Windows as well as with Linux. It
does the basics, (links, tables, background and text colors and such).
Dire or not, it is functional and presentable for a variety of purposes

There is no stand-alone HTML editor that I know for standalone mozilla
excerpted applications.

not on my own desktop or for this gmail account.
