For the last few months these lists have been a bit quite in regards to news about Connotea, so I thought I would let you know about a few things that have been happening with the code and with the service.
1. Better import of RIS files. This week we rolled out an improvement to the import of RIS files to stop Connotea from mangling the tag format from PUBMED records. It seems to work a lot better now. You can read about it here: http://network.nature.com/blogs/user/http-network-nature-comprofileianmulvan y/2008/04/24/improved-import-of-ris-files-to-better-handle-pubmed-tag-terms 2. New items about Connotea One of the Nature press officers is now tracking news stories about Conntoea in connotea. You can follow them here: http://www.connotea.org/user/gracebaynes 3. More journals supported We added a module to understand journals on the Atypon (www.atypon.com) platform. This includes many academic journals and publisers such as the MIT press. You can read about this here: http://network.nature.com/blogs/user/http-network-nature-comprofileianmulvan y/2008/04/16/annual-reviews-now-supported 4. Client Side javascript We have just rolled out some client-side Javascript functions prepackaged to coordinate with Connotea. Showing Connotea Articles on Your Web Site You can display Connotea articles on your web site by using our remote Javascript facility. In the HTML <head> place the following HTML elements, replacing username with your Connotea username: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.connotea.org/remote.js";>//</script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.connotea.org/jsw/user/username";>//</script> And in the HTML <head> also place this style block or add the rules into an existing style block: <style> .connotea { width: 350px; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif } .connotea_head { background-color: #eeeeee; padding: 4px 1px 4px 1px } </style> The CSS is available for your customization. Elements are also marked with CSS classes for items, item, info, tags, tag, etc. In the HTML <body> place the following HTML element at the position where you would like a list of articles: <div id="connotea" class="connotea"></div> The script in the head will arrange for an event to be called when the site is loaded that fills the div in the body with the articles. Instead of /user/username in the second script element above, you can use other queries that yield articles, such as /tag/tagname or /user/username/tag/tagname. Placing to Add To Connotea Links on Your Web Site You can include "Add To Connotea" hyperlinks on your web site by using our remote Javascript facility. In the HTML <head> place the following HTML element: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.connotea.org/remote.js";>//</script> In the HTML <body> place hyperlinks such as the following where you like: <a href="javascript:addToConnotea()">Add To Connotea</a> The addToConnotea Javascript function can also be used in onclick handlers. It optionally accepts a URL parameter and a title parameter, although these will default to the current page.
