Google Books Search Results
Google has changed its url syntax for search results pages so that, for me currently, the Google Books Zotero translator does not work quite as intended. From looking at the translator code, it seems to be structured so that, like on a Google Scholar search results page, on a Google Books search results page there should be a 'save to Zotero' folder icon in the Firefox url bar such that if clicked, a sheet appears that allows the user to select which items from the search results page should be added to the library. With the new syntax, this does not occur. The old syntax still generates a Google Books search results page that activates the proper behavior if you enter the url with old syntax manually, but just going to Google and searching for a book does not.
old syntax from the Google Books translator file that works if entered manually:
http://books.google.com/books?q=asimov&btnG=Search+Books
same query with the new syntax that does not generate icon:
https://www.google.com/search?q=asimov&btnG=Search+Books&tbm=bks&tbo=1
old syntax from the Google Books translator file that works if entered manually:
http://books.google.com/books?q=asimov&btnG=Search+Books
same query with the new syntax that does not generate icon:
https://www.google.com/search?q=asimov&btnG=Search+Books&tbm=bks&tbo=1
and that part should probably be rewritten entirely to cover both the old and the new layout.
