Hi Phil,
unfortuntately, the order of atts in URL query is not respected. We will
look into fixing this for the next release. Please let us know whether
or not it can wait for few months,
Best,
Syed

Hi,
I am just about to release the first production version of the new
InterPro Biomart. I am making use of the URL facility to create
direct links from the existing InterPro web site to the BioMart. The
problem I am experiencing is that the order of attributes specified in
the URL is ignored in the results column order.
As an example of the problem, see:
Tiny URL: http://tinyurl.com/ljosra
which maps to:
http://wwwdev.ebi.ac.uk/interpro/biomart/martview?VIRTUALSCHEMANAME=default&ATTRIBUTES=entry.default.entry_attributes.entry_id|entry.default.entry_attributes.entry_short_name|entry.default.entry_attributes.entry_name|entry.default.entry_attributes.protein_id|entry.default.entry_attributes.protein_name|entry.default.entry_attributes.pos_from|entry.default.entry_attributes.pos_to|entry.default.entry_attributes.match_score|entry.default.entry_attributes.protein_tax_id|entry.default.entry_attributes.taxonomy_full_name&FILTERS=entry.default.filter_page.entry_id.%22IPR000001%22&VISIBLEPANEL=resultspanel
The url lists the attributes in the order EntryId, Entry short name,
Entry Name, Protein ID, Protein Name, Start position, End position,
Match score, Taxonomy ID, Taxonomic name
which is completely different to the order in which they are displayed.
I have looked in the mart-dev mailing list history and found some
reference to attribute order posted a couple of years ago, but no
mention since, so perhaps this is a configuration issue that I need to
correct?
best regards,
Phil.
