#26 Cannot retrieve S. cerevisiae genes from Ensembl

[Anonymous]

When entering a S. cerevisiae standard gene symbol (for instance Q0250), I get the following error message: "Error: Unable to find gene_id in response from server. This probably means that the Ensembl server has changed formats - please report this in an email to owenjm@users.sf.net or submit a bug report at http://perlprimer.sf.net..."

Yes, Ensembl has apparently changed its format (although, curiously, it seems only to affect certain organisms - Mouse, for example, seems to work). I'll try to have an update out as soon as possible.
