Thanks for trying.
I investigated further and learned that saving changes to the file locally is very browser dependent.
- In IE some sort of Active X is used
- The Firefox code "delves into the internals of the browser"
At any rate, the desktop solution is to use an Opera-specific mod that involves Java (see http://my.opera.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=91372 for details).
There's a plug-in that allows Safari to save changes, and perhaps this would work with the GTK+Webcore browser in the 770.
Or perhaps the author of TiddlyWiki will accede to the pleas to integrate Opera support.
At any rate, the microcontent approach of TiddlyWiki seems very well suited to the Internet Tablet approach. Take a look at tiddlywiki.com and see for yourself (and thanks to John Holmblad for bringing this to my attention on this list).

Issue 26
Hi,
I tried it, but it does not seem to work. I could not do exactly as the instructions say because
"right click" (long press with stylus) menu does not have "Save link as.." or similar option. I tried
by saving it manually but then it pops up dialog "it's not possible to save changes using this
browser" when I press the save changes link of the local copy.

Since TiddlyWiki is "just" an html file, you'd think it would run fine on the Nokia 770.
However the TiddlyWikiTutorial site says it may not work with Opera, which the 770 will come with. The TiddlyWiki.com site says only Firefox, IE 6 and Safara can save changes. Without that feature, TiddlyWiki isn't really useful.
Perhaps someone with a device could visit tiddlywiki.com and try to save changes (well, clicking that in the sidebar will give you instructions on how to save things to a file to which changes can be saved).

All,
I discovered this today from a Linux user group to which I belong:
http://www.tiddlywiki.com/ < http://www.tiddlywiki.com/>
Do you think a tiddlywiki will work with the N770 browser?
Note that one of the tiddlywiki authors mentioned on the aforementioned home page has a site devoted to tablet pc's. I guess we need to educate Christopher about the forthcoming Nokia N770 so I have copied him on this email!
