drag and drop citations from zotero to text editor
Hi,
wondering how drag and drop fro items in the zotero window to a text editor is implemented. I use linux, and this works for the simple editor GEDIT that comes with gnome in the sence that what appears on the screen is the item formatted according to the bibliographic style, for example, in this case:
{Balagurumoorthy et al., 2008}
On openoffice I gen a large chunk of strange code:
<div style="line-height:1.1em;"> <p style="margin:0">{<span style="font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;">Balagurumoorthy et al.</span>, <span style="font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;">2008</span>} <span class="Z3988" title="url_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_id=info%3Adoi/10.1016/j.ab.2008.06.037&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.atitle=Method%20to%20eliminate%20linear%20DNA%20from%20mixture%20containing%20nicked%20circular%2C%20supercoiled%2C%20and%20linear%20plasmid%20DNA&rft.jtitle=Analytical%20Biochemistry&rft.stitle=Anal.%20Biochem&rft.volume=381&rft.issue=1&rft.aufirst=Pichumani&rft.aulast=Balagurumoorthy&rft.au=Pichumani%20Balagurumoorthy&rft.au=S%20James%20Adelstein&rft.au=Amin%20I%20Kassis&rft.date=2008-10-01&rft.pages=172-174&rft.issn=1096-0309"> </span></p> </div>
In other (scintilla based) text editors such as SciTE and WikidPad, I dont get anything at all. Copying using ctrl+alt+c works in all cases.

Which really shouldn't be in html unless selected -
so essentially we're seeing the problem seriate is describing in that thread, in spite of the fact that html is unchecked in the quick copy preferences.
