TiddlyWiki Bug

As I reported on the Google TiddlyWiki group...

Problem: Version 2.5.2 fails to save backup on a network drive in a

Windows domain environment with IE7.

I've got two empty TiddlyWikis.  One is v2.5.0 and the other is

v2.5.2.  I have saved each in the same folder on a network folder

(i.e. \\servername\sharename\foldername).  I have defined

txtBackupFolder to be "backups".  When I click Save Changes, 2.5.0

saves the file and saves a backup in backups; 2.5.2 fails.

No plugins.

Windows XP SP3

On a Windows network, using Windows domain security.

­Fails when browser is IE7.

It works with Firefox 2.5.1.

Work-around:

I used a text editor on the file, and inside the definition of

copyFile, I changed

­

    copyFile: function(dest,source) {
        drivers.activeX.createPath(dest);

to

    copyFile: function(dest,source) {
        var browser=navigator.appName;
        if (browser=="Microsoft Internet Explorer")
            ieCreatePath(dest);
        drivers.activeX.createPath(dest);

and I pasted ieCreatePath from the 2.5.0 TiddlyWiki immediately after

the Main function.

With the work-around, it saves the file and it saves the backup file.
