Hi,

First of all, thanks for making bibtexParse available, it's really come in handy for me: I use it to generate my publication list on the fly from a single bibtex file with a fairly simple php script.

http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~ps/publications.php

There is one feature which I had to add manually to PARSEENTRIES.php, namely to have, for each publication, the original bibtex entry available and pretty printed. I use it on the page to show the bibtex, the idea is that the page can be used to put together bibtex files fairly quickly by copying and pasting-- I plan to also generate one for my entire bibliography.

I'm not particularly happy with my changes though, I didn't have much time to study your code and so I'm afraid that what I wrote was a little bit hacky. I'm sure that you would do a much better job of it than I did, so maybe this would be one feature which you could include in a future release?

Cheers,
Pawel.

    Hi Pawel,

    Can be added as an option and shouldn't be too difficult to do. Thanks for the feedback. In terms of generating a bibtex file for your entire bibliography, why not use some of the refence manager software available on this site?
