I'd like to be able to sync a downloaded TiddlyWebWiki #12

I don't quite see how I'd do this if OpenID is my login option for THoster.

Assuming you have downloaded the tiddlywiki to your desktop and since worked on it...

Later you are back on the net, and would like to synch back up.

In your browser go to hoster and log in. Your browser now has the auth cookie. In another tab open up the wiki on your desktop. Cause a sync to happen, it should pick up the auth cookie that logging in in the other tab brought along.

If this is not what happens please make a ticket to that effect.

Ok, it looks like that works. I have two comments: 1 - the sync interface doesn't show you that the sync has worked 2 - this is relying on sharing cookies between tabs on documents accessed over file:/// URI's. This is not supported in Chrome by default and I think it is problematic in other browsers.

There's a discussion here about cookies on file:/// URI's: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=535

Please direct any issues with the sync interface to Martin et al in the tiddlywiki crew

On the sharing cookies between tabs: just load it all up in one tab, in succession.

I agree this is all a bit clunky. Have a look at the end of this message for my thoughts on the matter: http://groups.google.com/group/tiddlyweb/msg/2c68d4e3a0ca1776

Basically: TiddlyWiki needs a tuneup.
