Bibtax parser: Mashup no more

In some (many!) posts I have talked about parsing bibtex files. Till now, I have been using PHP, Excel – in fact anything I could find that meant that I did not have to write my own software. I suppose I was producing a form of mashup. All this seems to work but the problem […]

Bibtex: Display papers by a given author

For a while I have been blogging on various bibtex related topics. My interest in parsing bibtex sfiles started a long when I was looking for a way to automatically generate my publications web page, rather than having to update the raw HTML every time I published a new paper. There are a few free […]

Endnote: Thumbs up to Technical Support

I have recently been posting about bibtex and some of the problems I was having, and some of the solutions I had come up with. As the research project I have in mind develops, I do envisage more problems on the horizon so I thought I might look around for something a little more sustainable. […]

Easily converting ris-citations to bibtex and some reflections

I have recently done a series of blogs on parsing Bibtex files. When I post a blog I tweet it with a #bibtex hashtag. Every so often I search for #bibtex in Twitter just to see what others are saying. A recent search threw up an interesting web page. The blog post is interesting in […]

Bibtex: How to enter names

My recent bibtex posts have drawn a few comments, which I am very grateful for. I have already described one of these comments in a post I uploaded yesterday, where somebody had suggested that I look at biber and biblatex.   Another comment I received was made in the post about Parsing Bibtex Authors. I […]

Bibtex is not the only solution apparently

Recently I have been blogging quite a lot about bibtex (see here) and how I can parse bibtex files. When I tweeted about my most recent blog post, I received a reply asking whether I had looked at biber and, instead of parsing the bibtex file, whether I would be better off parsing the bcf […]

Downloading Bibtex Files

In previous posts (see here for my previous Bibtex posts) I have been talking about a research project that  have in mind. One of the things I have to do is download quite a few bibtex files from various journals. Easy you might think, and you’d be right in thinking that. It should be easy, […]

Parsing Bibtex Authors: How I Do It

I mentioned (see here for a list of previous bibtex posts) that I was facing a challenge of parsing bibtex authors. One of the problems with the current system that I use is that, although it works pretty well, but it does not handle all cases correctly. To give you an example, if I have: […]

Some of the Challenges in Parsing Bibtex Authors

In previous posts (see here) I have been talking about a system that I have been working on that enables the publications area of my web site to be driven by a bibtex file. It all seems to work pretty well and maintaining my web site is now a lot easier than it used to […]

Update: Displaying bibtex on web site

A while ago (see here for my Bibtex posts) I commented that I was working on a system where I could take a bibtex file and display that on my web site. The result can be seen here. The system works pretty well in that my web site (at least this part of it) is […]
