LoadTiddlers Woes

[skye riquelme]

Hi All

for some time the LoadTiddlers plugin was working...but gives me a -
1. Erro ao executar a macro <<loadTiddlers>>:
2. [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff
(NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)
[nsIScriptableUnicodeConverter.ConvertToUnicode]" nsresult:
"0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)" location: "JS frame ::
file:///C:/Users/Skye/EduCore/PDC21/EcoVida2009/PDC.html ::
mozConvertUTF8ToUnicode :: line 25185" data: no]

message when I try to access a local file using a relative URL.

Around the same time II updated to FireFox 3.5.5 (Vista Home Premium)
and also updated LoadTiddlersPlugin to 3.8.1.

If I manually write in the full URL (file://...........) URL it works
fine. However I am using this plugin within a course TW...so I have to
assume that each student has a different drive/folder name for thier
course TW - many are even using pendrives so the drive number could
change frequently !!!!..............so absolute urls wont be easy to
use....

Any way this plugin can be made to work with relative local file URLs.

An example is here - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/284644/PDC.html - (click
the open book icon and try the open (abrir) the learningJournal (Meu
Diario))

Thanks in Advance
Skye

Hi Again

Almost forgot..TW version 2.5.3

As a workaround.....what would be the code to to detect the file
adress of the local TW.......if I could "calculate" the local file
path and put it into a config.options parameter I could generate local
absolute urls.

Thanks
Skye

Hi All

Back answering my own question!!!

Continuing to study this problem and the results have taken a strange
turn. It seems that the problem is not the URL, but rather the fact
that the pureStoreCode file that I was reading in, using
LoadTiddlersPlugin...was created on a Tuesday!!!!!!!

Guess that´s a bit hard to follow. I work in portugues...and in
portugues Tesday is "terça-feira".....seems the problem is the letter
"ç"....in the creation date of the file (not the individual tiddlers).
If I change the date to "terca-feira"..it loads from the local
file...no problems. When I change the date back to "terça" (using
Notepad+++) the macro falls and gives me that same crazy error!!!!

So..I plan to wait to next Tuesday to see what happens (in portugues
only tuesday has that strange letter!!!)...if so I will probably mess
around with the Portugues plugin and simply mispell the name of the
day!!!!!!.--sorry Paulo Soares!!!!

I don´t understand what is causing it...but I have a useful solution.]

Thanks

Skye
