// This code will change ISBN links to point to the url of your choice, // instead of Special:Booksources, when you are logged in. // // How to use it: // // 1.) Make sure you are logged in, so you can edit your user javascript //    page. // // 2.) Copy the contents of this page to your user javascript page. This page is //    at User: /monobook.js, where is replaced by //     your user name. For example, my user name is Lunchboxhero so my javascript //    page is User:Lunchboxhero/monobook.js. // //    (Every line that starts with "//" is a comment is not necessary for the code //     to work and can be discarded.) // // 3.) If you want to change the destination URL from amazon.com to another book //    source, you can do so by changing the value of the book_source_URL.  Go to //     Book sources and copy the URL of the book source you want to //     use (right-click or ctrl-click the link, then click "Copy Link Location", //    "Copy Target", or similar).  Put the new URL between the quotes next //     to book_source_URL, in place of the URL now there. // // 4.) Once satisfied with the destination url, and your javascript page saved, you //    may have to refresh your browser cache in order for the code to be loaded. //    //     For Mozilla/Safari/Konqueror: hold down Shift while clicking Reload (or //     press Ctrl-Shift-R), IE: press Ctrl-F5, Opera: press F5. // // The code should now work, as long as you are logged in. // // The current magicURL includes Wikimedia's Amazon Referral reference. That means if you click on // the ISBN link, go to Amazon and end up buying the book, Wikimedia will earn some small amount // of money from that sale. If you don't want to support Wikimedia in this way, but do want ISBNs // to link to Amazon, replace the current magicURL with "http://www.amazon.com/gp/search?ie=UTF8&field-isbn=MAGICNUMBER" // // Good luck, and if you have any questions, leave a comment on the discussion // page of User:Lunchboxhero/monobook.js. Thanks to Superm401 and drrngravy for their // improvements. var book_source_URL = "http://sflib1.sfpl.org/search/i?SEARCH=MAGICNUMBER"; importScript('User:Lunchboxhero/externISBN.js');
