COinS in XMLUI has invalid referrer Id and dc metadata; spans are not properly constructed ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DS-748 URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-748 Project: DSpace Issue Type: Bug Components: XMLUI Affects Versions: 1.6.2, 1.6.1, 1.6.0 Reporter: Bill Hays 1. The referrerId is hard-coded as "dryad.org" and there doesn't seem to be a reasonably simple way to either pull a HTTP request parameter or a DSpace config property value and use that instead since the xsl transform at that point cannot reach the dri document. 2. The format identifier "dc" implies strict Dublin Core according to the OpenURL spec and the COinS online docs. Selectively using qdc seems to go against that. But trying to crosswalk qdc to dc also seems very difficult in the Manakin context. 3. What can be easily fixed is the wrapping of the COinS spans around item titles which clearly goes against basic practice as discussed in the COinS online docs. The problem here is that mouse rollovers inappropriately display popups of the context objects. It is also unclear to me whether the placing of multiiple COinS on result screens is sensible across different consuming applications for COinS. The spans should have not content except some whitespace to force the existence of a closing tag. These first two issues don't appear to be easy to fix and there is no way to turn off COinS without editing the DIMHandler xsl. So, by default, any given DSpace instance will be rendering invalid COinSs, though they may work for certain COinS-consuming applications. If no one can fix these issues in the near term, I recommend that the COinS implementation be removed from the trunk and a separate patch be made available with instructions for customizations for those wanting this feature. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.duraspace.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Centralized Desktop Delivery: Dell and VMware Reference Architecture Simplifying enterprise desktop deployment and management using Dell EqualLogic storage and VMware View: A highly scalable, end-to-end client virtualization framework.
