AMS Journals translator is broken

billi · May 19, 2011

When I try to capture the paper located at the following webpage Zotero reports an error

http://www.ams.org/journals/mcom/1955-09-051/S0025-5718-1955-0071856-0/home.html

Error console contains the following message:

Error: Translate: translator called select items with no items
Source File: file:///home/eli/technion/zotero/translators/AMS%20Journals.js
Line: 0

This should only have affected journals with only one article per issue-- but try this fix.

Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/AMS Journals.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data).

It should start working. If this works for you, please post here so that I can submit this change to be pushed to all users.

ajlyon,

Thank you. It works now.

Did you get a chance to test this with other journals and papers as well?

Give me an example.

I mean other AMS journals-- please try saving other items, other journals, and the like, to make sure that everything else is still working fine.
