ESA online journal translator broken?

Going to

http://www.esajournals.org/perlserv/?request=get-document&issn=0012-9658&volume=084&issue=02&page=0532

(this is not open-access, unfortunately, so might be hard to replicate?)

I was delighted to see a Zotero icon but ... "Could Not Save Item,
an error occurred while translating this item. Check Known Translator
Issues ..." Two items appear in this web page, neither of which seem
to apply.

version 1.0.0rc3, running on firefox 2.0.0.6, on Ubuntu 7.04 ...

cheers

    This is now fixed (sort of), but the retrieval is still a little bit funky --
    the title is oddly formatted and the journal is missing.

    http://www.esajournals.org/perlserv/?request=get-abstract&doi=10.1890%2F06-0737.1

    gives me

    Queenborough, Simon A., David F. R. P. Burslem, Nancy C. Garwood, and Renato Valencia. 2007. NEIGHBORHOOD - AND - COMMUNITY - INTERACTIONS - DETERMINE - THE - SPATIAL - PATTERN - OF - TROPICAL - TREE - SEEDLING - SURVIVAL - JF - Ecology. 88, no. 9: 2248. http://dx.doi.org/10.1890%2F06-0737.1 (accessed October 13, 2007).

    Which looks OK except for the odd title formatting, but
    the journal information is included in the title field:

    @article{queenborough_neighborhood_2007,
    title = {NEIGHBORHOOD - AND - COMMUNITY - INTERACTIONS - DETERMINE - THE - SPATIAL - PATTERN - OF - TROPICAL - TREE - SEEDLING - SURVIVAL - JF - Ecology},
    volume = {88},
    issn = {0012-9658},
    url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1890\%2F06-0737.1},
    author = {Simon A. Queenborough and David F. R. P. Burslem and Nancy C. Garwood and Renato Valencia},
    year = {2007},
    pages = {2248}
    }

    thanks
