PubMed: not getting page numbers

jreiswig · October 18, 2006

I'm not getting page numbers on citations I'm bringing in from PubMed, and I coulda sworn that I was getting them the first few searches I did. (I just installed Zotero today.) Let me know if there's any info that I could provide that would be helpful...

I think you're right--I'm not getting page numbers at either PubMed or the alternative HubMed (http://www.hubmed.org). We'll look into it.

I don't know if this is related, but I'm getting the following error with Pubmed:

Could not save item.
An error occurred while saving this item. Please try again...........

I tried both straight into pubmed and through our school proxy - both give the same error.

I did try zotero with amazon and it works.

I have the same error as rscarriere using Firefox 2.0, Zotero 1.0.0b2.r2, Ubuntu Linux 6.06, at both PubMed and HubMed.

Running Firefox from the command line generates some error output when trying to scrape these pages which makes me think that the parsing by the translator is at fault. Zotero works fine at JSTOR library pages for me.

Would be great if you could look into this as import straight from PubMed would be my (and many others) major use for Zotero.

I'm having the same issues with PubMed, i.e., I get an error box that says "Could not save item. An error occurred while saving this item...." A journal icon pops up on the address bar. Here's the exact item I was attempting to save: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=pubmed&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=AbstractPlus&list_uids=16949069&itool=iconabstr&query_hl=3&itool=pubmed_docsum

thanx!
