Also - for loading remote LSID resources:
I thought I remembered after having loaded Roderick Page's Firefox
LSID extension, I could just paste the following in the Firefox
URL text box, hit return, and the plug-in contacted an LSID
Resource Resolution server at IBM to return the resource.
My plug-ins stopped working when I upgraded to Firefox 2.0. I
just now went to the Sorceforge download page for Roderick's
plugin and got the latest version (the first full release - v1.0.0).
I believe the plug-in on SourceForge is a separate project, but
can't say for sure...
It installed just fine, but when I try to access:
urn:lsid:uniprot.org:keywords:462
I get an error back claiming "unknown protocol".
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
It seems that you need to prefix the identifier with "lsidres:".
Then, instead of "unknown protocol", you get "false"...
Maybe this has something to do with the fact that we never set up a
resolver, but other identifiers don't seem to work, either:
lsidres:urn:lsid:ncbi.nlm.nih.gov:pubmed:12571434 returns "false"
lsidres:urn:lsid:ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.lsid.biopathways.org:pubmed:
12441807 returns "Error retreiving authority WSDL"
lsidres:urn:lsid:pdb.org:1AFT:1 returns "Error retreiving authority
WSDL"
Maybe a simpler resolution mechanism may not be a bad idea after
all ;-)
