[TW5] Unable to save

[Andrew]

Please forgive me if I am missing something obvious. I'm trying to run a stand alone version 5.1.8-prerelease locally at work where I can't install anything which may be the problem. It is on Window 7 using IE9. Since we can't download anything, I had to use notepad to save the code from the page on tiddlyspot to an html file. When I originally opened it, IE9 asked if I wanted to allow an activex plugin and I stupidly said no. The page displays but now no matter what I try it only displays the message about right clicking the link and file save as but nothing happens when I do that. I tried the hta hack, clearing cache, redoing everything but still the same. I know it is IE9, but I was so hoping I could work around the problems with polyfills but I feel like I killed it. Any suggestions?

Download it at home and take it to work on a thumb-drive? Try it with a proper browser (can you email it home to yourself?) Try running portable firefox http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable

Try the stable release instead of the pre-release?

Can you save files that are emailed to you? I'll email you a blank tiddlywiki if that will help.

NB: I just tried this - went to tiddlywiki.com, view-source, copy all, paste into text editor, save as .html, open with firefox = broken tiddlywiki (javascript error) .ie; I don't think you can copy the text out in this way and get a working file
