Dan, regarding your request that I not double post, the other post was in reference to a different problem than the one suggested by your ticket. The error I am getting is different than the one you reported.
If it's a Could Not Save error on EBSCO, then it's covered by the ticket. If they changed their site, there might be various problems, and the translator just needs to be fixed and tested.
If you can provide specific steps to reproduce particular problems, you're welcome to do so here.
Not sure if this is connected, but capturing data from http://web.ebscohost.com/ehost/detail?... results in a proper citation, but the PDF fails to download. Replicable. I arrive at the site via my university.
In know the zotero preferences are properly set as PDFs are auto-captured from other sites like wiley.
Can you post the author, title and EBSCOhost database that you had the issue with? EBSCO host links are tied to sessions so I can't see where it was failing.
Hmm... now when I bring up this same title I don't even get a zotero icon in the firefox address bar. While in the search results list, I still do get the zotero folder icon, but trying to use it results in an import error.
Anyone care to share their experience using Business Source Complete by EBSCO?
I am unable to save fromthe Business Source Alumni edition by EBSCO today (11/17). I receive a standard "could not save item, an error occurred" dialog box when I try. I do have the zotero icon appear in the address window. I connect to EBSCO through my university alumni account. This is the address:

Selecting "Direct Export to EndNote, ProCite, CITAVI, or Reference Manager" sends the citation and a snapshot of an html full article to Zotero perfectly. I am not sure whether the snapshot will replicate again when I am not logged into my university's site, but that is a different issue ...
I'm also getting a "Could not save item" message attempting to save a citation from Business Source Premier / EBSCO Host. The first time the Zotero Report Errors function shows: [JavaScript Error: "TypeError: text.match(/T1\s+-\s*(.*)/) is null" {file: "file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Stephen/My%20Documents/zotero/translators/EBSCOhost.js" line: 0}] (Report No: 1182265576). I updated my translators manually but the problem still arises.
The second time there's a different error message: [JavaScript Error: "item has no title" {file: "file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Stephen/My%20Documents/zotero/translators/EBSCOhost.js" line: 0}] (I tried a different item) (not reported)
Any thoughts? I can always use Google Scholar to work around, but I'm trying to persuade sceptical colleagues to use Zotero :)
I'm unable to save directly from http://ehis.ebscohost.com/ehost/detail?vid=6&hid=116&sid=547548af-52a6-41fd-b24b-8d7ae3252e38%40sessionmgr114&bdata=JnNpdGU9ZWhvc3QtbGl2ZQ%3d%3d#db=rfh&AN=ATLA0001585701.

Also getting the "could not save item" error in EBSCO. Using Firefox 3.6.3 and Zotero 2.0.3 on Mac OS 10.6.3. Report ID is 89463612.
The Zotero article icon appears in the url line and does show the EBSCO translator when hovered over. When I click the icon, I get the "could not save item" error. I've had this problem off and on for past couple of months with EBSCO. Most recent attempt was with
