You *can* drop a TWClassic file onto the tiddlywiki.com/upgrade function (or any other TW5 document)... and it imports the tiddlers from the dropped TWC into the new TW5. I tried this with some TW2.8.x files and it worked just fine. I was able to import the tiddlers from the TWC document, save/download the results, and then open the local copy. I think the clue to the problem is the error message: "can't find variable: FileReader". FileReader is a standard HTML5 javascript object, defined by the browser. However, if you are using an older browser that pre-dates HTML5 support, that object won't exist, resulting in the error that was shown. So.. the question is: what browser (and what version) was used to attempt the upgrade? enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios YOUR DONATIONS ARE VERY IMPORTANT!
