Are there any BlackBerry users out there using a TiddlyWiki? I would
rather not use a hosted wiki as I keep sensitive information on it
which is not allowed to leave my PC. The questions I have are the
following

1. Can you open/edit/save a tiddlywiki on the SD Card from the
BlackBerry
2. Can you simply point your Browser to the file located on your PC
somehow
3. Is there an application similiar to the one in the thread listed
below? The link is now dead

Thanks

Hi eagle0877

I use iTW (http://itw.bidix.info/) on my TYTNII(http://www.htc.com/www/
product/tytnii/overview.html ) with OperaMobile (http://www.opera.com/
mobile/) or SkyFire (http://www.skyfire.com/).
BidiX's iTW looks best on an iPhone - because of the Safari-browser.
You can obtain a VERY nice look (similar to Safaris) on a pc with
Google Chrome (I use Chromium on a usb (The portable version)).

The Skyfire browser provides the best javascript- and flashexperince -
and I've had no trouble navigating all kinds of TWpages and using the
functionalities of different plugins - with Opera I've had different
issues with popups not "popping away" again etc... But I like the
navigation better in Opera...

At some point I saved a page on my sdcard and opened it with Opera
(forgot how) - but I never was able to save any edits.
This isn't a problem with iTW - because it uses tiddlerUploadPlugin -
for uploading single tiddlers on the fly,which saves bandwith and work
very well - because it is invoked every time you have edited a
tiddler.

If you use toggletags or datainput via html - it's neccesary to edit
the tiddlers in question individually or use a script for saving all
the tiddlers in question - at once..

I recomend iTW by BidiX because of it's design for mobile use - but
any tiddlywiki can be used.
NB! I can't get tiddlyspot to accept single tiddler upload - so I use
my own ftp-server with BidiX's phpfiles adjusted accordingly...
iTW can be located on your sdcard, run in the Opera Mobile browser and
save (upload all or tiddlerwise) to net -The changes are NOT saved
locally.
2) If you can specify the networkadress to the file on a shared drive
on your pc - you should be able to open it with Opera mobile - with
SkyFire I cannot open any local files - but any file with a http:Url
works ... - don't know why - try it...

Sorry but I don't know anything about WhisperJ2ME ...
