(Archived) I must be missing something about clipping from web

Recommended Posts

I clip a section, thinking it will save it, I can make my notes while I read it, and move on to the next,then go back and organize them, right?  Here's what I get when I clip as a new note, OR paste it into a note.

I try to edit and click out formatting and links but it all still shows up. 
If that's the way it will be every time, this will be more time consuming just cutting and pasting it into a word processor. 

So this will clearly not work for me. 
 
I assume I'm missing the obvious.  Please advise and help me get in line with the heads of the developers.

Hi,

I'd like some additional info to look into this.

- Browser version

- Web clipper version

- OS version

- The URL where the above issues are happening.

chrome

i just downloaded web clipper, so it is the latest version i assume?

win 7

cut and paste or snip from any verse at biblegateway.com and it comes out the same way. inconvenient. but i found out this is the only place it occurs, so i am not as annoyed. but if i can fix it, please advise.

i will get the version later when i get up out of bed. 5.30 am....

They have formatted the content in a way that the Web Clipper cannot handle when it converts form HTML to ENML (Evernote Markup Language) I'm not technical enough to give any recommendations but following W3 standards would be a start and not put content inside iFrames (not sure if they do that or not...)

Am I missing something here?

 

Just opened that site, ran clipper, sent it to a Notebook checked on web and it arrived fine.

 

Also using Chrome and Windows 7.

 

Regards

So, perhaps I'm  doing it wrong, I'm willing to be wrong.  I highlight a bible passage from any translation.  I click it and I get...

 

 

Galatians 5:19-21

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

19 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: a]" style="font-size:0.65em;line-height:normal;font-weight:bold;vertical-align:top;">[a]A)" style="font-size:0.65em;line-height:normal;font-weight:bold;vertical-align:top;">immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, B)" style="font-size:0.65em;line-height:normal;font-weight:bold;vertical-align:top;">sorcery, enmities, C)" style="font-size:0.65em;line-height:normal;font-weight:bold;vertical-align:top;">strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, D)" style="font-size:0.65em;line-height:normal;font-weight:bold;vertical-align:top;">disputes, dissensions, b]" style="font-size:0.65em;line-height:normal;font-weight:bold;vertical-align:top;">[b]E)" style="font-size:0.65em;line-height:normal;font-weight:bold;vertical-align:top;">factions, 21 envying, F)" style="font-size:0.65em;line-height:normal;font-weight:bold;vertical-align:top;">drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not G)" style="font-size:0.65em;line-height:normal;font-weight:bold;vertical-align:top;">inherit the kingdom of God.

 

So, if you are doing something different, please share.  Perhaps if I make my mouse lefty instead of righty?  I dunno, that's about the only thing I haven't tried that I can come up with.

Forgive me but I am not sure I know what you mean by a 'selection clip'

 

I just clicked on the Evernote Clipper icon, made sure it had selected all of the text on the web site and saved it to a specific Notebook.

 

Something tells me you are both talking about something else?

 

Best regards

I went the page, highlighted what I wanted.  Right clicked it, chose the web clicker ellie phant, and tried all three options over there.  I got the coding in every instance.  So, You are smarter than me and I broke it, but I'd like to learn if that gives you enough to tell me my error.  Thanks for looking into it though.

Chris, it seems what you're doing - and what appears to be working correctly - is to let the web clipper identify the region on the page for itself.  What LogosCatalyst is trying is to select a specific portion of text, then clip.  I've used this method myself when the clipper has trouble identifying what I'm after, but it seems to be slightly broken on that site!
