Cool idea using tabbed folders and IFrames

[Dave Gifford - http://www.giffmex.org/]

Maybe I'm not the first to do this, but I created a TW that acts as a
hub for IFrames of my other TWs.

Steps:
1. I greatly reduced the header height and put the mainmenu in a
topmenu.
2. I pushed the CSS for the display area all the way to the left, and
added togglerightsidebar to the topmenu, so I can see my display area
all the way across.
3. My topmenu items open 5 tiddlers with tabbed folders, each tab of
which will be an IFrame linking to a TW in my local drive. That way I
can have any # of categories. These files will probably be based on My
Notes TW.
4. My next step will probably be to add a TW into which TiddlySnip
inserts tiddlers. This will be a catch-all, and as I feel like it I
will move tiddlers from there to my other TWs.

Granted, my TWs aren't linked to each other. I can't search them from
the hub. But I can quickly move from one to the other, and I can see
each TW in a wide area.

Just thought I'd pass on the tip...

Check out:

It automatically turns all your external links into dynamic iframes...
click the link and the iframe is created on-the-fly! click the link
again, and the iframe is removed.

enjoy,

You are way ahead of me, as usual.

How does this differ from the MiniBrowser? And can they be combined?
So as not to have two plugins doing almost the same thing?

HTH,
