I followed the link to the TiddlyWiki page, but still had problems because I
used the "File/Save page as" route. The Wiki says in the "SaveChanges"
section (Tiddler) that this doesn't work when initially saving due to
"SaveUnpredicatbilities". They give an alternative method (Right click on a
link...) which worked properly. The irritating thing at the moment is that
when I save any changes, I get "Internet Security" warnings about script in
the page. This IS under 'Doze though, and I could probably turn them off..
