Is it possible to display a local HTML file within a tiddler?

[Zachary Storer]

Hello,

I want to archive some blog articles and reference them from within my TiddlyWiki.

Is there a way to display a locally saved HTML file, and its corresponding images,

within a Tiddler? I want to embed a locally saved webpage within a Tiddler versus
linking into an external browser. I am also using Tiddly Desktop.

Thanks,

Assuming that you're talking about a local file TW, you can use iframe:

<iframe src="path-to-html-file" width="90%" height="500px"></iframe>

This is the most universal way of saving documents that I've found. PDF's and other formats will often break on various platforms. I kind of liked MHT, and even MAFF, but they don't appear to have survived the great FF 57 Fiasco.

You can add comment structures to your tiddler with keywords relating to the web page (e.g. <!-- anthropology cosmetology Sagan --> ) so that the tiddler will show up when you do a search.

This also works

 <embed src="sample.html" width="100%" height="800"> 

and 

In a tiddler tagged $:/tags/RawMarkup you can include more

I suppose I should know this, but what is the difference between iframe and embed ?

Is your suggestion for pulling libraries into TW? Otherwise I'm not sure why you would do that.

Thanks!

Mark,

You can embed even a text file. Its just a way of making external content available.

I am not sure if its loaded at wiki load or only when the tiddler is rendered but I assume the latter.

I am still exploring a fuller use of html because as long as it does not need JavaScript the browser responds as it would any other html delivered on any website.
