There is already a ZMI option in the ZMI:Options Tab called "Create an 'empty book' for CSV items with no file attachments?".

There is also already a ZMI option called "import .txt and .text attachments too?".

If these do not work for you, then you need to attach your .csv export file so I can look at your real data, because otherwise there is no way for me to know exactly what it is that you are talking about.

Added: if you export your library to a .csv from Zotero, open that .csv with a spreadsheet application, and go far to the right where the column "File Attachments " is found (normally column AL or so), you should see the exact file related to your question. If the "File Attachments" column is empty (blank), then there is nothing that ZMI can do other than create an "empty book" if that ZMI option is checked "yes".


Important: if you want to import a "web-page,complete" into ZMI, you will have to first bundle all of its many little component files together using an existing Zotero plug-in into some single package format that ZMI can pre-process before adding it to Calibre with all of the 26 ZMI custom columns that go with a Zotero file attachment. Example: a .zip or .rar file. ZMI processes single file attachments only (pdf, txt, text, epub, mobi, docx, odt, pptx, xls, zip, rar, etc. etc.).
