DOIng something with DOI's

Post by danzac »

I've brought this up before, but I'd like to see some functionality with DOI's in BE. There are 2 or 3 things I would like to see:

1) There be a small button, just like the URL button, on the DOI field. This button would launch the DOI using the dx.doi resolver.

2) Have BE automatically link the DOI (again using the resolver) in the concise view so that it can be clicked and launched quickly.

3) Perhaps a shortcut key for launching the DOI link - or the ability to tell BE to launch the DOI link first with the URL shortcut - and the URL that is there if there is no DOI.[/i]
