Subject: [LibX] Bookmarklet passing %20 instead of space
Message-ID: <OFAAD09040.40784EE8-ON852574DB.00450258-852574DB.0045633B@osgoode.yorku.ca>

Hello all,
One of our bookmarklets searches a consortial database called Scholars 
Portal.  When keywords are passed to the search engine spaces are replaced 
with %20 which causes the search to fail.  I'm sure this was working in a 
previous edition of LibX but I haven't had a chance to try and trace when 
the change occurred.  Has anyone else encountered this?  And, more 
importantly, know how to stop this from happening?
Thanks.
Tim

If the %20 shows up in the search field, we would be double-encoding it.
There were bugs with double-encoding in previous versions of the LibX
code, which however - I hope - we've since fixed.

Could you try a recent build and if that doesn't fix it, report to us
with edition id and catalog number, possibly using the "Help Me With"
button in the edition builder?

ps for the list: turned out to be a bug in Scholar's Portal, not in LibX.
Their server was double-encoding correctly encoded data while
redirecting to another location.

Worldcat Local as well as Worldcat are now supported as a proper catalog.

It should be auto-detected as well if type, for instance,
cornell.worldcat.org or worldcat.org

The search syntax no longer uses the additional, redundant kw: ti:
prefixes unless necessary.

Please test and report any issues.

Not as of now. Could you leave a RFE at libx.org/bugzilla ?

[ I note that it's generally not necessary or useful to do that, all
it does is slow things down. ]

In my Display Preferences I have both the first and fourth radio buttons
selected.
 
In an earlier Firefox session I changed this preference from the first
(the default) to the fourth option but on restarting the browser both
are selected. The first option is the one which actually occurs. I am
using Firefox 3.0.3 and see this on several PCs.
 
Can anyone on a different version or browser confirm this as a bug?

Problem has been fixed and patched.

If you re-build your edition, it should work correctly.
