[TW5] Internet Explorer error: Unable to get property 'getItem' of undefined or null reference

[andrew.j.harrison84]

Is there going to be an Internet Explorer version? When I try to hit save on a stand alone copy from IE10, I get error "Internal JavaScript Error. Well, this is embarrassing. It is recommended that you restart TiddlyWiki by refreshing your browser. Unable to get property 'getItem' of undefined or null reference". I tried enabling the Enhanced Protected Mode in the IE settings, under the Advanced tab, in the Security sub-list so it would enable the Microsoft XSS filter, but that didn't work and I don't even know what it is but it was a suggestion from stackoverflow. I think the error has to do with the way the encription is getting the password I think. Any help? I really want to be able to use it in stand alone mode with IE10.

Hi Andrew

Thanks for the feedback. I haven't tested with IE10 for a while, but have just downloaded a VM to give it a try. The specific error you've encountered is indeed to do with password storage: it turns out that IE10 doesn't allow access to local storage for pages loaded from a file: URI. I've pushed a fix:

https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/commit/05e73ee1da9a5263a9c5b7a93c0fe59a373bde29

The fix will show up on five.tiddlywiki.com in a couple of days (when the widget refactoring is completed).

Best wishes

Jeremy
