Upgrade Storageurl in citation APA citation export not working - hyperlinked incorrectly.
When I copy a citation from my Zotero Titles column into another application, the URL associated with the title is rendered incorrectly. The URL is incompletely rendered. The URL is rendered until the final point (.) in a sample of citations I have exported.
Here is a sample. The same fault occurs whether I copy-and-past, or drag-and drop to: Apple Pages, Apple Textedit, or tumblr. Consequently, I presume the fault is a Firefox or Zotero fault. This a a recent error - occurring say since mid October 2009.
The fault occurs in the latest Firefox (3.5.5), and the previous. I am using Zotero 2.ob7.4. I export my citations as APA Edition 6. I will explore if other export styles cause the same fault.
These citations are pasted directly from my Title list.

These are the same titles copied from Apple Pages, after copying from Zotero. This copy doesn't render the image I see in pages - the italics of the book titles, nor the failing hyperlinks.

This discussion has been closed.
But in my Pages, for example, the following text is not included in the underlined hyperlink, and therefore the hyperlink does not function:
Barbour, R. (n.d.). php?content=about
Barnett, B. (2003, February 21). .html
Basbøll, T. (2009, August 26). .html
The fault does NOT happen with these Export styles:
American Medical
American Political
Am Sociological
... I haven't looked at any others.
.... so I have a temporary fix!
The fault occurs whether or NOT I have "Copy as HTML" checked.
Zotero doesn't get the link right if the entry doesn't have a period at the end (as required specifically by APA).
I tried to locate a relevant forum but found nothing in about 30 mins of searching.
But I'm positive it's fixed in the next version
(in fact, here is where Dan submitted the fix
https://www.zotero.org/trac/changeset/5337 )
APA style works correctly again! As of 2.0b7.5 26 November.
Thank you.
I enjoyed a nice tour of all the other citation styles, even if I am a little late with my marking and research plans!
