02:08 bureado  OTOH, when do records get added to Zebra? At the bulkmarcimport.pl step or when rebuild_zebra is run?
02:07 bureado  How can I test/configure Zebra in order to get it working with my UTF-8 encoding?
02:07 bureado  In OPAC, results have the title with good encoding (I assume those come from MySQL) and the rest of the data is with a wrong encoding.
02:06 bureado  I didn't touch the default configuration files for Zebra, nor am I acquainted to Zebra itself, but it's a really weird problem.
02:06 bureado  Yet Zebra throws data in some weird character set -- I've check /var/lib/koha/zebradb and there's data in there with the wrong encoding.
02:05 bureado  I've been loading data into a Koha3 system using Zebra -- the MARC records are encoded as UTF-8. MySQL, Apache and all other components are configured to use UTF-8, and the data is stored as UTF-8 in MySQL.
02:04 bureado  Greetings :)
21:49 chris    that seems to be the trick for the indy 500
21:47 chris    yep
21:43 atz      i'm not sure he was the fastest car on the speedway... but he was the fastest survivor.
21:42 atz      heh, nice
21:37 chris    scott dixon slashdotted the fairfax news network :)
21:37 chris    we maxed out the bandwidth
21:37 chris    on monday we had the power cut, a new site live, and a huge news story on the other site on the same subnet
21:36 chris    yeah, that was the other thing
21:06 atz      chris: does the Indy 500 make the news there?
20:46 chris    maybe more after the olympics
20:46 chris    at least for a few hours each week anyway
20:43 gmcharlt chris: good to hear
20:42 chris    the good news is it looks ill be able to do some koha hacking again in the near future
20:31 chris    heh
20:30 paul     seems that murphy's law has reached New Zealand ;-)
20:30 gmcharlt g'night paul
20:30 chris    gmcharlt: so that was less than ideal :) but other than that, good :)
20:30 chris    sleep well paul
20:30 chris    pretty good, the stock exchange site went live on saturday ... and on monday the wellington CBD had a big power outage .. just when everyone went to look at it
20:29 paul     hi chris, have a good day. I go to bed.
20:29 gmcharlt ok - how's it with you?
20:28 chris    heya galen, hows things?
20:28 gmcharlt hi chris
20:28 chris    morning
20:00 paul     ok, will do it.
19:58 owen     Go ahead, please
19:57 paul     owen : you do it, or I do it ?
19:47 owen     I would say we can remove the label
19:46 paul     so we should remove the label ?
19:41 owen     yeah, the label looks like it's just there for consistency, but I'd agree that it's not necessary
19:41 atz      "copies available" is clearly the availability, imho
19:40 atz      this is probably a case where the "label" is unnecessary because the "values" are clear enough in their meaning
19:38 owen     I'm open to a change, but I don't know what would be better. Availability: Copies on shelf? But you'd have to make sure you didn't count in-transit items as "on shelf"
19:35 paul     translate to : Disponibilité :  Exemplaires disponibles
19:35 paul     sounds awkward.
19:34 owen     Because it sounds awkward, or because it makes translation difficult?
19:31 paul     couldn't we spell that differently ?
19:31 paul     so, twice "availa..." in 3 words.
19:30 paul     "Availability : copies available"
19:30 paul     it's written :
19:30 paul     http://o11.bureau.paulpoulain.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=lequeux&limit=BMRG
19:30 paul     in OPAC, result list, one of our library is complaining for a very small problem :
19:30 owen     Yes
19:30 paul     owen ?
19:29 atz      ok, cool, I can use that
19:29 owen     for an example that might help
19:29 owen     look at line 51 of includes/cat-toolbar.inc in the intranet templates
19:20 atz      I just don't know how to get that onto the YUI menu
19:17 atz      sure, window.open
19:16 owen     I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't, since the target attribute is invalid in XHTML. Can you use a function to open a window via js?
19:15 atz      right
19:15 owen     You mean so that it can open in a new window?
19:15 atz      owen: w/ yui menu, do you know if you can specify that an element link should have a target attribute?
19:00 tim      Nope.  With data exported from our running 2.2 system.
18:59 owen     tim, are you testing with the sample data?
18:42 tim      listed in the status column of an item that is checked out.
18:41 tim      Available
18:41 tim      Checked out to Patron Name, due 05/31/2008
18:39 owen     Checked out and available?
18:39 tim      But in the intranet, it says it's checked out and available when I vew an item.
18:38 tim      In the OPAC
18:38 tim      If I view an item that I know is checked out, it will say it's checked out.
18:38 tim      Things were checked out when I loaded the database.
18:36 owen     Has zebra re-indexed since things were checked out?
18:35 tim      It just has LibraryName (1).  Never shows Checked out.
18:34 owen     So the OPAC search results screen should have a line like "Availability:  Copies available:  Centerville (1),   Checked out (1), Withdrawn (1),"
18:33 tim      owen: It's set to statuses
18:32 tim      I'll check that setting...
18:31 tim      Yeah owen.  3.0
18:31 owen     What do you have set for OPACItemsResultsDisplay?
18:27 owen     tim, you're talking about 3.0, right?
18:09 tim      No way to tell an items status in search results.  Don't know if that's just not a feature or a problem with my setup.
18:08 tim      nothing returned when hidelostitems is enabled.
18:07 tim      Still having problems with search results.
18:07 tim      Hi owen
18:06 owen     Hi tim, how's it going?
15:57 gmcharlt one that just notes the boundaries for searching and sorting
15:57 gmcharlt one that includes subdivision types used for matching
15:57 gmcharlt use stylesheet to have multiple indexes for a heading
15:56 gmcharlt hdl: yes
15:55 gmcharlt "Whale snacks" not being the same as "Whale -- snacks"
15:55 hdl      Can we do that with DOM Indexing?
15:55 gmcharlt hdl: does ->as_text put in " -- " or something for subdivisions?  if so, great, but note that while sorting doesn't need to care about the type of subdivision, it does need to note the existence of them
15:54 hdl      were you aware of that ?
15:53 hdl      And not on a peculiar field/subfield
15:53 hdl      I mean : I was advised that authorities sorting should be done on MARC::Field Heading->as_text.
15:52 hdl      gmcharlt: Have you implemented a good way to sort.
15:52 paul     lol
15:52 atz      heh, you make it sound so simple  :\
15:52 hdl      thx gmcharlt
15:43 gmcharlt you would then run it through the koha-indexdefs-to-zebra.xsl  stylesheets to produce authority-zebra-indexdefs.xsl, which is what Zebra uses to transform incoming MARC(XML) records into indexed terms
15:42 gmcharlt the definitions you would edit are in authority-koha-indexdefs.xml
15:42 gmcharlt hdl: the xsl and xml files in etc/zebradb/marc_defs/marc21/authorities
15:41 paul     gmcharlt: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2173
15:41 hdl      I cannot find any xsl file with zebra indexing directives.
15:41 hdl      gmcharlt: where are the DOM indexing files ?
15:39 paul     ok, dropping bug now.
15:38 gmcharlt paul: gotcha - file a bug to remind me and I'll take a look at it this week - there isn't enough time for me to switch UNIMARC auth indexing to DOM (unless you can do it soon), but I should be able to fix up the indexing defs
15:38 hdl      So that we have the same index for Heading $a and the rest.
15:37 hdl      But it has been removed some day.
15:37 hdl      I had created Heading  for $a and Heading-Entity for the rest.
15:37 paul     yes. And it used to work properly. It's the move to DOM/XML that removed this important feature (for UNIMARC at least it's important)
15:37 hdl      gmcharlt: worse.
15:36 gmcharlt hdl, paul: yes, it looks like all authority searches are defaulting to a "contains" in the entire heading
15:34 paul     gmcharlt: yes, right surname is $a and firstname in $b
15:34 hdl      $b for firstname
15:34 hdl      $a for surname
15:34 paul     gmcharlt: look at : http://i11.bureau.paulpoulain.com/cgi-bin/koha/authorities/authorities-home.pl?op=do_search&type=intranet&authtypecode=NP&marclist=mainmainentry&operator=contains&value=robert&orderby=HeadingAsc
15:34 gmcharlt surname and forename are in separate subfields in UNIMARC headings, right?
15:34 hdl      This will happen for you too : John or Smith...
15:33 hdl      If i am looking for Paul, Family name only, I donot want to have those whose first name is paul
15:33 gmcharlt hehe
15:32 hdl      Paul can be a name and a surname.
15:32 hdl      let's take an exemple
15:32 hdl      koha cannot make difference between heading $a data  and heading data
15:31 hdl      When searching on heading ($a) only,
15:31 gmcharlt hdl: what problem?
15:31 paul     hehe... welcome back newlogbot...
15:31 hdl      And we have a problem.
