I just tried from scratch and am seeing the same issues. It's working for me. I should admit (for those who have not been following this thread) that I had this working in Bastien's earlier version, so "following Nick's new instructions" (and Ben's instructions) means looking through those instructions to make the requisite changes to Bastien's earlier version. Three points that might be relevant: - my org-annotation-helper.el file incorporates the change suggested by Carsten's recent email in this thread: - "(org-remember nil ?w)" instead of "(org-remember ?w) - my template uses "%:region" instead of "%i" to set the location for the region copied in the browser to be inserted. - I updated my system this week from Fedora 7 to Fedora 9. It appears that he new version of Firefox (3.0b5) changes the naming convention for the network.protocol-handler inserted in about.config: - "network.protocol-handler.app.remember" instead of "network.protocol-handler.remember" (I can't verify this because I can't figure out how to delete the network.protocol-handler to start from scratch, but it appears that if you just set up the bookmarklet and then click on it, Firefox 3 will ask you for the application -- you then navigate to the shell script, double-click on it, and firefox sets up network.protocol-handler for you.) If it's not working for you, then I think (though remember I'm not a programmer ;-) that the problem is likely either in your template or in the bookmarklet set-up. You might start troubleshooting by following Dan's suggestion to test your template by starting emacs and then running this command from a shell prompt: org-annotation-helper 'remember://http%3A//orgmode.org/ \ ::remember::Org-Mode%20Homepage::remember::Notes' If that opens up your template with the proper insertions, then check out the bookmarklet. Hope that helps -- or at least that it doesn't introduce further confusions. --John -- John Rakestraw
