EBSCOHost translator error
Awhile ago while using Zotero 2.0.9, the translator for EBSCOHost quit working for me, so I had to start inputting all my sources by hand. And now that I've updated to Zotero 2.1.1, it's still not working.
In particular, try #4 & #10 (updating and resetting translators). There have been some updates in the past months.
Go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/EBSCOhost.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data).
If it works for you, let me know.
Click the save icon in the address bar, then submit an error report as described above, and post the ID here.

So this would appear to break all proxied EBSCO users?
BTW, thanks to both of you for your help on this!
brkim, it looks like a change to EBSCO has broken the translator, at least in conjunction with a proxy. We're looking into how to fix it.
This is Josh Geller from EBSCO Publishing. I have been investigating this issue, and with some help internally found the problem to be in the way Wheaton College is configured in EBSCOhost admin. I will forward this string to our Customer Satisfaction group and have them get in touch with their contact at Wheaton to resolve the issue. The problem is that, while you are using a proxy to access the site, Zotero uses the persistent link on the page to gather the information it needs, and the persistent link (or permalink as it is now called) is configured NOT to use the proxy. It is a combo box change in admin to add the proxy to the permalink. I will pass this information on to those that can resolve it.
