snapshot when capturing it automatically from ACM. I checked some items that I had captured from ACM previously; their snapshots are just fine which means I've started to experience this problem rece

Some translators do not grab snapshots. That is the case with the Xplore site. Not sure what is going on with the ACM page for you, I just grabbed the snapshot and it worked fine.

2.I try to capture an item from ACM Digital Library or from IEEE Xplore by clicking the icon in the address bar.

This is the style for many ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) publications, especially those in human-computer interaction (e.g. http://www.chi2008.org/formatting.html#archive-format).

I finally had a chance to test the translator for the ACM Digital Library and still receive the same error after making sure I had the latest update. The URL that failed was:

eg Proquest thesis found in ACM guide to computing lit. http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1269704&coll=GUIDE&dl=GUIDE&CFID=29575971&CFTOKEN=97601762

The revised ACM translator is now available. Your software will update automatically within 24 hours, or you can update immediately by clicking "Update now" in Zotero preferences.

Thanks for bringing this problem to our attention. We've tweaked our ACM translator, and the new version will be available later today.

I've been using Zotero long enough to become addicted... So when something doesn't work I'm depressed. ...No, actually, yes... Anyway, I had been having success scraping citations from the ACM Dig

We have adjusted our ACM translator to handle these escaped characters. Your Zotero translators will update automatically within 24 hours, or you can click "Update now" in Zotero preferences. Thanks

For example, if Ifind something on ACM Portal and then add it to Zotero, it should be tagged 'ACM Portal'.

So far I tried to import references from ACM and ScienceDirect. I noticed that abstracts are saved only from the latter. Is it possible to have abstracts identified and saved by every translator?

On a side note, I've been learning how to write translators and have a fix for the ACM translator to parse DOIs. How can I submit this or check it in?

(Although I've got some more coming with the ACM translator!)
