Re: Bibliography help - some problems I have noticed

[Curiouslearn <curiouslearn@gmail.com>]

I was trying to figure out the problem and I found that the database I
was referring to was empty. I perhaps forgot to save it. When replaced
with the appropriate .bib file I do get the references at the end of
the document. But I observed the following. Would really appreciate if
someone could point out whether I am making a mistake or whether there
is a bug.

(1) If the Key has a paranthesis, the \cite[Reference] gives empty brackets.
(2) If I use \cite[author][Reference] then I get a line break after
the opening paranthesis.
(3) Also, note that I refer to only one paper of Daughety and
Reinganum in the minimal example below. However, because there are two
papers by them in my database, the References section lists the year
as (2000a) instead of just (2000). The bbl file generated contains all
the references in my database and not only the once I have cited.
Should it not contain only the ones I have cited in the document.

The following is a minimals example, demonstrating above problems. I
have included the bibtex source of the citations used below. If you
need more information, please let me know.

Using \type{\cite[author][BergstromBagnoli2005]}  gives a line break
after the opening paranthesis.
Using \cite[author][BergstromBagnoli2005] gives a line break after the
opening paranthesis.

Using \type{\cite[author,year][BergstromBagnoli2005]} just returns the
key in the document in place of the author names and the year.

Paranthesis in the key such as this one,
\type{\cite[Daughety_Reinganum(2000)]}, gives empty brackets.
