Warning shows up again

I get the following message when i try to enter details on the workpage

Warning: array_flip(): Can only flip STRING and INTEGER values! in /var/www/html/ajax_bookInformationBlock.php on line 1554

That message showed up a few months ago, the mods did something to fix it, but it is back again. This message shows up in the spot where I tell if someone is the author of the book I added. I work with the dutch site.

For example:

http://www.librarything.com/work/56621/edit/62961315

I have exactly the same problem but only with Dutch sources. All English, etc. sources are fine.

I get this message when I want to add a book by a foreign author. When I add Dutch writers everything is okay.

The problem is still there. Is somebody looking into this?

Can you specify exactly which source you're adding with? I think it's source-specific.

Tim: Change to "add books" category when possible.

Koninklijke bibliotheek (nederland)

that the source I use

I can try to use the English site while adding books, but that doesn't change the problem other dutch members have.

That's the source that's implicated in the book-eating black hole:

Edited to add the tracked bug report: http://www.librarything.com/topic/99386

As a workaround: the "Vlaamse Centrale Catalogus" is pretty good on Dutch books too, and seems not to cause this bug.

I added the book: The Pride of Hannah Wade - Hoe bitter was haar bruiloftslied by Dailey, Janet 2 times, 1 using the "Vlaamse Centrale Catalogus", which gives the following information concerning the Publication: Weert Phoenix cop. 1985
and 1 using the "Koninklijke bibliotheek" (NL), which gives the following information concerning the Publication:
Weert : Phoenix; 272 p, 23 cm; http://opc4.kb.nl/DB=1/PPN?PPN=864217692.

Because of the nearly laque of information for me the "Vlaamse Centrale Catalogus" isn't 'pretty good' on Dutch books

You are right. But they all have their drawbacks. The KB almost never gives any info in the language fields, and is a notorious culprit in causing the lexicographic nightmare of often using ligature ij instead of i + j (which hampers sorting and search). I feel I mostly have to edit everything I take from any external source anyway.

Anyway, like I said, you might use it as a workaround. That doesn't mean I wouldn't like to see the bug fixed.

The warning appears on the edit page of a work that has other authors (the translator for instance) after you've just added it from a (any) source, but only on the non.com sites (I tried several sources on .nl and .de).

It seems to be an old warning of LT not being able to handle more than one author, which it couldn't in the past, but now it can and does: the other authors do show in the appropriate field, so the warning seems to be for a problem that is no longer there.

8>: I haven't seen many KB-added books end up in the black hole lately. I think it's mostly amazon these days.

That's good news. But that doesn't mean they don't still cause problems.

>9 Nicole_VanK:.. thanks BM, I will see which source works the best for me.

Closing.
