When you are running under FF3+, there is a known, ticketed problem
with using the "browse" field to select a path/filename in the
Backstage>Import function:

http://trac.tiddlywiki.org/ticket/683

Fortunately, there is also a TiddlyTools CoreTweaks 'patch' that re-
defines the 'browse' button (for FF3 only) to use an alternative,
*secure* ask-for-filename dialog that bypasses the problems with the
standard 'browse' field.

You can get the tweak here:
   http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#CoreTweaks##683
   (note: this also requires CoreTweak 604 that follows it)

The simplest thing to do is to just import the entire CoreTweaks
tiddler.  After you save-and-reload, the 'Browse" button in the Import
panel will appear as "..." so you'll know that the fix has been
applied.  Then, just use the Import panel as you usually would.  When
you press "..." for the first time, you will likely get a security
warning... this is the normal, expected response from the browser, and
you should allow it to proceed in order to select a path/file from
your local (or networked) filesystem.
