Hi Jeremy, The TiddlyWiki I'm using is a 2.6.5 (October 6, 2011) that I've been editing through several FF versions.
I've tested with an empty 2.6.5 and an empty 2.6.6, and the problem seems to affect only the 2.6.5 TiddlyWiki. I pasted identical text (including 'ü' '…', and some polytonic Greek) into each and saved them, then read the files into Python variables as strings. When I try to decode the 2.6.5 file as UTF-8, it throws an exception. Encoding the 2.6.5 as Latin-1 as well as the 2.6.6 as Latin-1 or UTF-8 works fine. Those are tiddlers that have only ever been edited under FF17 with TiddlyFox. I just discovered the Upgrade option Backstage. The Upgrade area is still visible with the "Loading core code" notice. It has created what appears to be a backup file, and there are differences between the empty.html and the empty.pre-core*.html files, but the Upgrade screen never goes away and the version info remains the same. Is this expected? Thanks for all your work!
