I just finished the rounds again and XML Mind Editor and Serna XML Editor are OK, but both have various license restrictions that get up my nose. So I will reluctantly reconsider emacs and see how I go.
-
Notepad++ was my choice editor on Windows but it does not work on Linux very well despite supposedly working with Wine. Emacs huh. Brave man. This program has a steep learning curve and not very intuitive in my opinion. A lot of people swear by it …

Thanks Adam. I do have a choice in editor. I use to use XMLCopyEditor but it has now stopped working and I can't identify why. As I reused an existing CSL Style (ensuring I correctly attributed the original authors) and tried to conform to their …
-
No problems from my point of view. COinS is a solution, but by far inadequate for robust long term use. In the short-term it is a matter of just reminding yourself that it only really works on books, articles and chapters. If you get an opportuni…

Adam, The editor of the journal asked me to make one correction, which I have on my webpage (default to long journal names rather than short). Can you please upload the corrected version? http://pap.fossworkflowguides.com/#zotero
-
I also note that the style you have in the library is different from mine. It includes '-' in the style that are not present in my versions. How have these been inserted?
-
Adam, I note that the preview for both these styles are not working. Is there something that needs to be done to get this to work? Simon
-
Issue fixed. I am happy to have this style and the 'Journal of Pollination Ecology' style put into the repository.
-
All issues fixed. I am happy to have this style and the 'Urban Habitats' style put into the repository. I posted here because that was what the wiki said casual contributors should do.
-
Apart from COinS, which obviously has some limitations, are there any other metadata standards that Zotero can 'Quick Copy' a selection and the resultant XML/HTML/whatever be inserted somewhere in a webpage and be seen by Zotero? Ideally, the more …
-
Is it possible to have Zotero export dublin core or any other metadata standard?
-
Done, Exposing Metadata updated.
-
OK. Then what I propose to do is revamp the above mentioned paragraph and essentially orphan the 'OpenURL COinS' page. I'll try and get redirect the page to my new tutorial. I am proposing keeping my title as it is clear and succinct what it contain…
-
ajlyon: Thanks, it is nice to get some positive feedback. Open Content creation is something I am actively involved in on my website http://www.fossworkflowguides.com and I don't mind creating useful content for other projects when doing something t…
-
Although interesting the PHP part you mentioned does not actually discuss Zotero or its functionality at all. It could easily be dropped and the paragraph on COinS in the Using an Open Standard for Exposing Metadata revamped. This would however requ…
-
For people finding this thread. Following the latest release of Zotero, ajloyn's version of the COinS translator is now available to everyone. I have published the procedure on how to use this functionality in the developed section of the wiki und…
-
I have confirmed that this now works. Thanks ajlyon. As requested by Dan, I wait to post the tutorial until after the updated COinS.js file works it way out to the public.
-
First up. That worked. Second. When you look at the export to HTML option in /zotero.jar/content/zotero/zpcom/cite.js (lines 336+) you can see that they call Zotero.OpenURL.createContextObject(Zotero.Items.get(itemID), "1.0"), which returns a strin…
-
Sorry to me the output appears to be created by different routines. Unless createContextObject has parameters that you did not specify I am sorry to say you will need to go diving.
-
I have removed direct links to the wiki page from the above thread. I have removed all text from the wiki. If shown how, or if someone wants to do it on my behalf, I will remove the empty wiki page.
-
I am happy to acquiesce, please refer me to some documentation on how to move or delete a wiki page. The wiki only states that it can be done but provides no information on how to do it. At the moment I am considering removing the wiki page. The re…
-
Hi Dan, Aside from the fact that the procedure does not work, which I presume eventually will be fixed. This task is a user task not a developer task. As this post attests (and the numerous cross-links by different contributors, and links in their…
-
Adam, Thanks for the post. I have discovered that the COinS created using this method are not the same as those created by the method described above by me. In fact these COinS are not formatted correctly and do not get picked up by Zotero. The …
-
For clarity I have outlined what the preceding post alludes. If you open your preference dialogue (Action > Preferences), then select the 'Export' tab, you have the ability to define a quick copy format. Select COinS, then exit. Now from the no…
-
OK. Do you know any of the developers that could implement this feature? I presume it would be relatively easy, yet be very helpful for a wide variety of users.
-
OK that worked. Any chance of inserting a dialog asking if the user wants the data copied to the clipboard, then doing it?
-
ajlyon, I tried what you said and found that the export option did not work. Although the option appeared, when I tried to save, it crashed (error: "newItem is not defined". The export file was empty. The other point worth mentioning is that the …
-
Here is a simple method I worked out to get embedded COinS data from a HTML file created using Zotero. The following has been tested on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Linux). The one-line-script assumes you always call your file the same name and save it in the…
-
Thanks Mark. I missed that feature request. In regards to having extraneous lines of text in the HTML file I thought of filtering the text using python so I just had the 'COinS' lines being listed and capturing the standard output and plonking it i…

Thanks
