  • I was not very happy in that we ended up not using zotero, as a result, the whole process is very clumsy. But i could not figure out how to make sure the shared folder was synchronized quickly enough, in addition to all sorts of other problem…
  • all right -- is there a way to 1) run a faceless firefox, 2) run some javascript within that firefox to delete items in the shared folder. 3) run the sync with the server so the items disappear. 4) close the faceless firefox. ??? or …
  • there is a very short discussion of this at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_690 from the examples there it does not appear that the last name needs to be uppercase. that page references: http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CustomBiblio…
  • Dan, thanks for your help -- i still do not know what was going on, but renaming the existing translators directory, and copying translators from a clean profile of firefox cleared up the problem! It's true that I have been working on "small…
  • I disable all extensions, except zotero -- and this still happens. if i re-enable the 'Adblocker Plus' extension then I can indeed save the reference. the tooltip says: Zotero(Untitled) when the adblocker is DISABLED. the tooltip says: Zote…
  • sorry, i should have included this url: http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/bsc/ejb/2007/00000274/00000011/art00022 but i have not been able to save references from any ingenta connect page that i have visited so far.
  • Dan, I just tried loading the addon 'AdBlocker Plus' https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865 and selecting the default list of add sites to block. when that is done, the ingenta connect detect web works properly! so i …
  • i enabled the debug logging, and visited and saved an ingenta reference: somehow this tacoda.net, some sort of advertising site, is interposing itself. (4)(+0000000): Translate: Binding sandbox to http://an.tacoda.net/an/tpp.html (3)…
  • I will try enabling the debug, will need to do this tonight. @Bionatsci this is not through a proxy. it's not even recognized by the detectWeb -- there is something screwy in what is passed into detectWeb.
  • ingentaconnect has had a lot of trouble, there are previous posts from 2008, i believe, and 2007, where problems were solved;
  • i have a couple of other small changes to the translator, so that it works for CABI, zoological record, and biosis. but i don't know how to get them back onto the trunk. i think this might address: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/633…
  • Dan, that's what i'm doing -- which is why this is so hard to understand -- open the Gear->Import -> select the file (xxx.ris) the progress bar "Importing items" pops up, then the alert from windows: windows cannot open this file. us…
  • Thanks, Dan -- but ... so, i renamed the file to xxx.ris -- first thing, endnote would open on the file, and prompt me for a library to save the references to. So, i dropped the mapping of the ris file extension to 'Web Helper' from the file types m…
  • that was the first time I tried to sync -- now I have: cannot make changes to library.
  • I also cannot sync: "Error processing uploaded data". I submitted problem report: 958290933 Firefox 3.0.11 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.11) Gecko/2009060215 Firefox/3.0.11 zotero 2.0b5
  • just upgraded to 2.0b3, windows vista home premium, firefox 3.1 beta 3 build 20090305152042 I think i am getting a similar error syncing -- every sync reports an error, there were several reports, including 1546016354 (i hope i got that num…
  • well, I just gave up on repairing this database. I erased my local database, and the server database -- they were just trials, and samples anyway. I was able to sync when I had emptied out the server database.. the item that was referenced i…
  • Has any change happened in z 1.5 for this? it is still necessary for any openurl that is sent to our resolver to have a sid, and I cannot provide it through zotero (at least, I don't know how). As far as I can tell the situation above still …
  • I looked at a slightly different URL (http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/69503878/abstract) with scaffold, and saw this error: (FF 2.0.0.14, Z 1.0.6, windows XP). 17:00:51 Translation using Wiley InterScience failed: …
  • I also get this error, on the same example as bulaka. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.7) Gecko/20070914 Firefox/2.0.0.7 Z is 1.0.0rc3, but I don't know how to give the version of the blackwell-synergy site transl…
  • cz, I have yet to write my own translator, but if a page has an endnote link you can retrieve the RIS -- so the link you have can use the RIS retreival to fetch http://www.citeulike.org/endnote/article/515359 if you are trying to fetch th…

  • I am not sure this translator is 100% functional -- or if I have blundered into some edge case. I look at a record, and the has been determined as shows up as a 'Web page' so it does not have ISSN, volume, issue, and page number data. The RIS is…
  • I am trying to understand if I have the latest version of this translator does the 20-Aug 2007 release of Z have this RIS export? When this is updated will the translator have the same GUID, or a different one? I have updated my scrapers …
