Internal Web Pages

I've been assuming that readers of this blog probably know things like this already, but maybe not. Did you know the WBfS60 (the marketing guys are probably going to come after me for that sobriquet) supports the file scheme? That is, if you create a folder called "web" on your phone's memory card, and put an html file named "foo.html" in it, you can choose Go To Address in the browser, enter file://e:/web/foo.html and your internal-to-the-phone web page appears. Not the most useful thing in the world, but it can be handy.

Dang! You can't save .html attachments from the Messaging app to use with this!

file://e:/web/foo.html
Unfortunately WBfS60 is can't list directory contents.

Yeah, it's a shame that TiddlyWikki does not currently work with the browser. You're correct - TiddlyWiki's JavaScript is using browser/platform specific hacks to write to the local filesystem.
There's an emerging standard being developed for persistent client-side storage, so one day TiddlyWiki will be operable on your N80 :-)

Posted by: Bradley | November 29, 2006 12:39 PMOk, just tried TiddlyWiki on my N80 and I can't save any changes. Whatever JavaScript they use to write back to the filesystem isn't suported I guess. Pity :-(
Posted by: James | November 29, 2006 08:49 AMThis could be useful if using something like TiddlyWiki. (Note: I have not tried this with WBfS60 yet)
