Are you thinking of using XMLHttpRequest()? Sadly, for the last several years all major browsers prevent pages loaded from a file:// from reading other file:// URI locations, for fairly obvious security reasons. As far as I know, the best we can do to achieve the OP is to use JSONP — in other words, have JS code dynamically add a <script> tag that points to a file that contains the data as a function call. I don’t think it could be done with a plain JSON file. Best wishes Jeremy. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
