ResearcherID General

[chrisj]

I use Safari as my web browser, and have noticed the following issues with ResearcherID.

On my ResearcherID homepage (where I am taken when clicking on the badge) the default setting lists the top 10 publications, ordered by number of times cited.  So far so good.  However ...

1. When I click on "Citation Metrics" (under "Publications" on the left side of the page), nothing happens.  (When using Firefox, clicking on "Citation Metrics" brings up a histogram of citations by year, along with assorted statistics.)

2. When I click on the forward arrow, in an attempt to bring up the next 10 items in my ordered list of publications, the system apparently gets hung up.  I get a "Working ..." message but nothing further occurs.

3. Similarly, starting from the default setting of my ResearcherID homepage, when I try to change the sorting preference from "Times Cited" to something else (like "Publication Year"), the system again gets stuck in the "Working ..." mode.

Dear Chrisj,

Unfortunately there is an issue with the Safari web browser used on ResearcherID which means it remains at the working stage. This is sometimes due to a problem in which ":80" is not present in your page URL. To fix, please try adding ":80" after the .com, for example: http://www.researcherid.com:80/ViewProfileSearch.action.  If you do continue to have issues please do not hesitate to contact Customer Technical Support at: http://science.thomsonreuters.com/techsupport/

Kind regards,

Jenny
