Hi Chris Sorry to draw on your patience again, but I'm back to being confused.
> (Note the same semantics logic is why I think TW5 should consider being more particular about tiddlers labeled as JSON.) This is what I don't understand. What is it that TW5 is doing with JSON that is wrong? TW5 allows tiddlers to have the type "application/json", and I still don't see why that is wrong. TW5 uses "application/json" as the content type for PUTting modifications to the server; at one point I thought that this discussion was suggesting that the content-type for PUTting should be something else. > The driving force is providing a way to ensure you can always GET an encapsulated tiddler (text, tags, fields, etc) in JSON form even if the tiddler contains JSON But isn't the fact that we can't reliably GET a tiddler with all its fields a symptom of a problem with the design of TiddlyWeb? Other data stores like PouchDB don't appear to have any similar behaviour. I don't understand why it is TW5's problem. > It's becoming increasingly unlikely that I will get to this before mid week next week At my present rate of progress it's going to take me longer than that to understand what's going on :) Best wishes Jeremy On Thu, Apr 10, 2014 at 11:21 AM, <[email protected]> wrote: > On Thu, 10 Apr 2014, FND wrote: > > However, while semantically that seems more correct ("here's a tiddler", >> rather than some arbitary JSON), I'm not sure the distinction matters on >> PUT.
