The static site is just *rendered* content, written out to separate HTML files. When the output is generated from your TW, the syntax of each tiddler link (e.g., "[[SomeName]]) is automatically converted into real links between the relevant html files (e.g., "static/SomeName.html") However, the resulting static site doesn't contain any *code*. Thus, while a <$button> widget will appear in the rendered output, there are no widget handlers to process click events. Assuming that the real end goal is to make something that *looks* like a button, but works as a "static tiddler link", perhaps you can change your TW content from <$button to="SomeTiddler">click me</$button> to <$button>[[click me|SomeTiddler]]</$button> i.e., use tiddler link syntax, surrounded by a <$button> widget. You might have to tweak some CSS rules to get the button text to have the right look (e.g. normal text button text color rather than link color). enjoy, -e Eric Shulman ELS Design Studios TiddlyTools - "Small Tools for Big Ideas!"
