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. -- Phil Jones Senior Software Engineer InterPro Team PANDA Group, EMBL-EBI Wellcome Trust Genome Campus Hinxton, Cambridge, CB10 1SD UK.
