Even a basic markup like that offers little - if any - advantage over a basic GUI.I find it surprising that you don't see any advantages. It is lighter in weight (leading to faster development time & also a smaller download & less resource …

Sure--Just export to RIS, bibtex or some other format that RefWorks can import. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_reference_management_software

BibTeX keys have been discussed quite a bit. Search if you want details on some proposed refinements. A machine-generated item ID is non-nullable and unique, and possibly unmutable. I don't think we're going to need to have better bibtex keys…

@colemanhunter: Zotero uses the current URL in order to determine if a page can be translated. It does not use the page history. If the URL for PDFs on a particular site were predictable, it might be possible to have translators to work with t…

I managed to miss Erik's message Could you expand a bit on the "Remote collections do work, but they're not officially supported" bit of the message? Is this a matter of simply backing up the appropriate folder to a remote server somewhere? Or is t…

Of course my library offers Firefox on the public computersConsider yourself lucky! At one library that I use (that actually promotes Zotero) does not have Firefox.but my question relates directly to allowing a user to launch portable firefox from …

There is a limitation in Windows that prevents copying open files and it can sometimes be difficult to see what has a file open. Close firefox & bring up the task manager to confirm that the program actually terminates. If you still have p…

Talk to your librarians. They'll hopefully either allow an exception for your copy of firefox or may see the utility into providing firefox to all of their users.

and imagined I could use Zotero to link them together.You can, but you'd need to assign a bibliographic record to each document.

I take it you mean to say/imply that since Zotero doesn't use a markup language, I could write my note in markup, and then export it, where it would then be formatted.Yes.could you please elaborate upon this? I would find especially italics but also…

1) allow some sort of starring an item so that you can return back to it at a later time. Kind of a bookmark, especially when one's collection expands and cannot remember what last item was being worked on.This has been mentioned before. You can us…

I think that tags have to be associated with a record, so you'd have to insert a dummy record (or records) that contained all of the tags.

This has been asked a few times. At this time, the only way to do this is to export the unique citations from one collection & import them into the second.

noksagt, how do you know which fieldcode puts which field where?I do not believe the mapping is documented outside of the sourcecode. In this case, I actually just made a guess & tested it. I'm reasonably familiar with the refer format & i…

Your workaround is to replace %F with something that will put the label in a different field. %W might be good for you--it will put it in the location in archive field (and you are using this identifier to physically locate the article). …

This seems to me to be related to maintaining citation keys (a user-defined, unique identifier). See links mentioned in: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/1325/?Focus=5564#Comment_5564 A work-around would be to store it as a note or someth…

It would address luciferc's concern about more easily selecting just a few references and wouldn't require additional zotero-specific work from websites & the interface would be able to more homogeneous. There are downsides to page modifica…

I don't see why a webpage author should have to explicitly test for Zotero. It'd be much cooler if Zotero rewrote webpages similar to the way LibX can--adding a custom link in the page where it finds COinS or unAPI or eRDF.

FAQ (and see question above it). There is no Zotero server yet, but there will be some day. If you don't like export, you can copy the whole zotero directory (but this may create dups & won't be kept "in sync" (using the same database file won…

am not sure about the mechanics of exporting references and placing the result on a website so that students can use Zotero or similar to capture the references, particularly as the University uses WebCT for class websites.If you are unable to find …

Right...but just because a future version of Zotero might support something like that doesn't mean that all site translators will easily be able to support it too. COinS won't work that way & (assuming no help from WorldCat), one would have to …

It might be nice to just export this & place it on the web somewhere, so that the students can use a bibliography manager of their choice (including their own personal copy of Firefox+Zotero if they do not wish to buy a USB stick from you). …

COinS can accommodate UTF-8, but you wouldn't be able to separate alternate encoding for names in one span. You can either merge both the kanji and romanized fields together (as the page visually does) or can have two separate COinS (one for th…

There isn't yet a way to this that I know of. For the specific case of RIS, you can just concatinate the files together. One way to do this is to put all of this in the same directory, open a command prompt, change to that directory, 'mkdir temp' …

Actually, while it boggles the mind, according to the RIS spec N1 and AB are notes while N2 is an abstract. Zotero will store N2 in the abstract field—that is, with the rest of the metadata—and N1 and AB as attached notes.Ah--thanks for the correcti…
