Okay, I've followed the steps on IE, and still have the same problem: it exports the Tiddly format, not HTML (i.e. when I open it I just get the plain text notes with asterisks, etc.).
I am starting to get the impression that with one impetuous save-as I have permanently broken one of my TiddlyWiki files. Any suggestions for salvaging it, before I start looking for other systems?
