Hmm - never had any problems getting the exhibit to display here (and
it still works for me right now). It does everything it should:
faceting, etc. It just doesn't sort.
Given RDF data of the form that Zotero spits out:
<bib:Book rdf:about="urn:isbn:9780826515322">
<dc:date>2006</dc:date>
<dc:identifier>ISBN 9780826515322</dc:identifier>
<dc:publisher>
<foaf:Organization>
<foaf:name>Vanderbilt University Press</foaf:name>
</foaf:Organization>
</dc:publisher>
<dc:title>A Shot In The Dark</dc:title>
<bib:authors>
<rdf:Seq>
<rdf:li>
<foaf:Person>
<foaf:givenname>Martin</foaf:givenname>
<foaf:surname>Hawkins</foaf:surname>
</foaf:Person>
</rdf:li>
</rdf:Seq>
</bib:authors>
<z:itemType>book</z:itemType>
</bib:Book>
Should this do the job?
<div ex:role="collection" ex:itemTypes="Book"></div>
<div ex:role="view" ex:orders="authors.surname, authors.givenname"
ex:directions="ascending, ascending" ex:showAll="true"</div>
The answer has to be no, since it doesn't..... But why?
Right now, the xml reader seems to introduce new complexity, but if
that's the only way to solve the problem, I'll have to deal with that.
Frustrating that the live example on the wiki which is about books
doesn't work.
