I really appreciate the help so far - but I'm beginning to tear my
hair out (and I haven't much left!)
My script is simply:
<script>
window.MyData = {};
window.MyData.d = store.getTaggedTiddlers("CCF2009");
window.MyData.e = store.getTaggedTiddlers("CA2009");
return e;
</script>
which returns the result ReferenceError: e is not defined
