Modification to this extension
Hi, I found this extension extremely useful and it fitted my needs more than the other bib-something extension. However i did several modification, which suited me more. The main modification I made are the following:
 *  will display the [Someone 98]
 * Whenever a reference is not found, a menu is available for the creation of the new citation in the Bibliography page. It is template based, user configurable through the bibtex_fields.php file.
 * I changed the way you entered information in ... and made in bibtex based, so one can copy-paste directly information over the internet.
 * The Bibliography page is now section based, so
 * it can be directly accessed from the paper pages,
 * one by pressing the edit button, could easily see and copy the entire bibtex entry
 * more information to fit
 * One can now create a simple BibliographyPrint page with only the tags and have the old paper-like functionality back! (The entries there are sorted case-insensitive by id)

Within the archive there is .doc file explaining in detail the functionality of the extension. If you like and find this modification useful you can include it in your package and of course i am open to discussion for changing or adding new features. Thanks again for this extension and for giving me the start point to develop something further. The modified extension is located in http://lib.ece.ntua.gr/~nikos/bibliography.tar.gz NikosFrangakis 12:45, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
