Hi.. I... ugh :-)
I have also tried on multiple computers -- with no success, so I presumed it general rather than local, as a problem. They were all macs though and all with FF and Safari... did not test IE I am downloading through the browser -- http... No error code is generated.. it just hangs. I didnt check a log about this. Could do, but not sure the right one. I can look into this. The hanging is not the browser crashing, it is the download just waiting for a response from the server. I can use an FTP -- but dont know the FTP address for TW download. Could you supply? Is it simple ftp://tiddlywiki.com -- with anonymous user? This was pecked out in a hurry... apologies for typos etc. Cheers, John On Oct 15, 12:25 pm, "Anton.Aylward" <[email protected]> wrote: > johnraekwon said the following on 10/15/2010 11:36 AM: > > > Hi, > > > I on OS X, 10.5x > > I note that :-) > > > I posted about this a while back, regarding FF 3.0 (and the then > > latest version of Safari).
