CiteSeer is not included in the list of databases This is not a bug. The search URLs are used to search documents on the web and _not_ to import them into the database. If you click on any item in your bib file (right-click; search online) you'll find CiteSeer as a search option.
Importing stuff into the database from online ressources is more complicated than simply adding a URL. You need to take into account what format the required information is provided in. The only way to add CiteSeer to the list of online databases is to hack the sources itself, or help upstream doing it ;-) Cheers, Michael -- GPG key: 1024D/3144BE0F Michael Hanke http://apsy.gse.uni-magdeburg.de/hanke ICQ: 48230050 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
