Yet there continue to be problems running TiddlyWiki in various browsers. As a Mac/OS X user, I am unable to run certain commands, such as Save As; call an image file from a tiddler; nor will ImportTiddlers plugin read the tiddler list of another TiddlyWiki, even though the Import command in the backstage will do so. No doubt I am totally out of my league in making such a suggestion, if it is a suggestion, but I've wondered about the possibility of a browser -- or browsers -- designed specifically to run TiddlyWiki. Now if you explain to me why this is no possible or desirable, chances are good I would not understand. In my ignorance and incomprehension I can't keep from wondering, though.

I think that a versatile HTML compiler (html to exe) which creates stand-alone and secure desktop EXE applications or software from websites may be the solution you are looking for. A very good software of this kind can be found at www.htmlexe.com and the trial edition of HTML Executable has no time limit and it is a full-featured release. Best regards, C.

I seem to remember that changing the .html extension to .hta lets you run TiddlyWiki as a HTML application on Windows. This might help some people as the permissions are enhanced.

My reasons for asking: old versions of IE show a warning screen. Google Chrome cookie issues, etc. Lord knows what changes will come to browsers in the next couple years. I'd like to give someone a program that opens TiddlyWiki files witout any fuss, and if possible would allow for updates via Internet from a master TiddlyWiki file on a server. Any ideas?

Thanks, vowel-less, unpronounceable person! That looks like an option, but I noticed that the backstage section is missing on the hta file linked from the article. Is that the case with all hta TiddlyWiki's?
