Upgrade StorageAbout Custom PDF Resolvers
To download PDF files from a famous website, I used codes from Internet to modify "extensions.zotero.findPDFs.resolvers":
{
"name":"A",
"method":"GET",
"url":"https://**.com/{doi}",
"mode":"html",
"selector":"#pdf",
"attribute":"src",
"automatic":false
}
At first it worked well, but later some of articles couldn't be downloaded. I found sometimes when the "src"(attribute) value is Absolute Path, like "https://**.com/001.pdf", it works. But when the "src"(attribute) value is Relative Path, like "/001.pdf", the PDF file will not be downloaded successfully. I checked the website:
https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/custom_pdf_resolvers
but it seems there is no solution at present. How to solve the problem?

In this case, the "src" attribute of the "#pdf" selector returns a relative path (does not start with "http://" but with "/downloads/") and results in an exception (NS_ERROR_MALFORMED_URI) [nsIIOService.newURI].
Is there a way to work around it? I tried to use some XPath functions within the selctor, but that did not work. I'm afraid that would result in modifying the getPDFResolvers source code and adding a special case for relative paths.
