refbase

'refbase' is a web-based solution for managing scientific literature, references and citations. This status update will give you a quick overview about what's there and what's still missing. Currently, the following features have been implemented ... [More] successfully: - search the whole database by use of different search forms - search within results functionality - browse found records - view selected records in detail - export selected records to different citation formats - extract literature cited within a text and build an appropriate reference list - login/logout capabilities - user management - add/edit/delete records (logged in users only) The following (planned) enhancements are still missing: - easy customization of application specific variables via one global 'ini' file - validation of data entered by the user - proper management of the user specific fields 'marked', 'user_keys' & 'user_notes' - availability of additional citation formats on export - ability to save any records or queries for easy later retrieval - (batch) import of full ASFA records - 'copy citation to clipboard' functionality Known issues: - currently, the simple and advanced search forms employ lots of dynamic popup menus to ease user entry of data. This works well for small databases (<10.000 records) but causes significant speed problems for larger databases!

Welcome Everyone! This is a short introduction to "refbase", an initiative that originated at the Institute for Polar Ecology (Kiel University, Germany) http://www.uni-kiel.de/ipoe/ At our institute, we felt the need to develop a web-based solution ... [More] for managing scientific literature, references and citations. Aims are to develop a web-based, platform-independent, multi-user application for literature databases based on php and mysql. An implementation that aims to provide a comprehensive and platform-independent literature resource for scientists working in the field of polar & marine sciences can be reviewed at: http://polaris.ipoe.uni-kiel.de/refs/ It's a preliminary version (that still lacks lots of features, e.g., user management, adding/editing of records etc.). However, among the goals of this project is to adhere to web standards (i.e. produce standards compliant html code), avoid cookies (if possible) and make only sparse use of stuff like javascript - in short: keep things simple and accessible. The database application aims to offer: - a clean & standardized interface - a multitude of search options, including both, simple & advanced as well as powerful SQL search options - various display & export options We realize that there are similar initiatives in the workings, but we felt the need to develop a custom solution that would really fit our own needs.
