I think I found a bug

lpsv
Hello,

I'm using zotero 2.1, firefox 4.0.1, open office 3.2.1, windows xp.

I'm writing my PhD thesis, and then I tried to insert a citation on a table, I got an error. Sometimes the error message box would come with no text (blank), most of the time, and at other times it would come with an java exception stack trace, with an exception related to tables.

I tried to discover what could be the reason, as I had another document with tables and lots of citations (~30) inside the table.

I've noticed that the first page of my PhD text is the front cover, which is formatted with tables. Then I did the following test:

I created a new text doc, and placed a single-line table as the first thing in the document. Then I inserted a citation in the table, it worked. But when I tried to insert elsewhere (either a citation out of the table or inside), zotero crashed showing the empty message.

Then I deleted the table, let the first line empty (or with text, it doesn't matter), and inserted the table after that. Then inserting inside the table or outside worked.

I managed to come back to the error by deleting the text and coming back to the first case.
