Must go to bed but this is just so cool. I just realized an iframe is only necessary if you want to preview the tiddler/s. You're just searching a local tiddler with a list, in your own TW! And I even think you don't even need to involve proxy stuff or strict assuming the already existing impor

Hi Mat, While doing baby-steps in terms of actual traveling and destination-like-specs... your idea definitely has it's appeal... stuffing metadata into the core (or even fetching them from someplace) and use some remote-rendering voodoo to fetch the applicable contents either via intermediar

Here is another example of using iframes... http://tb5.tiddlyspot.com/#Widget%20Browser It allows you to select an entry from a dictionary and then have the url constructed from that. Have a look at the bottom of that tiddler. Best wishes, Tobias. -- You received this message because you are

iframes are cool and fun but the way that they embed content is limited. Visually, iframed content appears as part of the parent document. However, internally, it's wrapped up in an impermeable protective membrane that makes it impossible for the host page to actually access the iframed content. W
