Hi
Are you using IE 9? I know Web of Knowledge doesn't display the search results if you use IE 9 and you need to add the site under Compatibility View Settings. I've not had anyone report it with Science Direct, though I see on their web site that they support IE 7.0 and 8.0 and Firefox 3.0 and 4.0, but don't support beta or test versions of browsers

Hi Jonathan
Just tried recreating it and had no significant problems, however in Google Chrome the search display results didn't display particularly well - the display overlaps at the top - so it might be rendering issue. If the results are technically being retrieved in number of matches, it's unlikely to be associated with the authentication process.
Let me know if you want a screenshot to demo.

Subject: anyone having problems with Science Direct?
Is anyone else experiencing problems when accessing Science Direct through the UK federation?
This problem does not show up when we access it directly (we have direct access from our campus IP addresses), only when accessed through the federation
We can login fine - a search reports the number of matches, and the facets on the left-hand side are populated, but the results themselves are completely empty
The publishers say they cannot replicate this but we see it consistently with different user accounts, different browsers, different machines and locations, and I cannot see there could be anything at the Leeds end that would explain the service not working properly
