Description (last modified by cdent) (diff)
When TiddlyWiki attempts to find a tiddler in the store, if the target tiddler inherits server fields, TiddlyWiki will ask the SyncMachine? to try to GET it from the server, showing the user a "attempting to retrieve" message. If the server fails to return a tiddler the message remains and the user is given no indication that anything happened.
You can see this in action with the following steps:
- Go to http://peermore.com:8999/recipes/default/tiddlers.wiki
- Add a non existent wiki link to an existing tiddler
- click on the link
TiddlyWiki will attempt to retrieve the tiddler from the server, the server will respond with a 404 and the TiddlyWiki appear to have done nothing.
