DigitalStyle
DigitalStyle was a small privately held software company in
Rancho Bernardo, San Diego, California.[1] It was founded in 1995 by refugees from the failed software company Pages including Rick Gessner, Peter Linss, Greg Kostello, and James Hamerly.[2] Additional talent for DigitalStyle came from a Xerox
spinoff Chrystal Software including Steve Clark, Beth Epperson, and Don Vale.
Its flagship product, WebSuite, was a leading web site creation tool in the late 1990s. WebSuite provided advanced graphics and web page editing capabilities for novice authors, though it was also powerful enough for advanced authors.PNG.[4]
DigitalStyle was acquired by
Gecko layout engine that powers many of the products under the Mozilla[7] open source umbrella such as Firefox
.
