DOI link

asplundj

since you can localize a paper with the URL http://dx.doi.org/DOI-NUMBER it would be nice if the DOI automatically was made into a link.

Example:

I put the DOI-number 10.1007/s00442-007-0891-z in the DOI-field.

By clicking on DOI: the URL http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00442-007-0891-z opens. Just like it does when something is written in the URL:-field and you click URL:

oh, thanks. I missed that one. I'm glad someone else would find this useful

related thread (http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/431/) item #5 says:

* Clicking on DOI title opens http://dx.doi.org/[insert_DOI] , just as happens with URL

but is anybody doing something about it? There is no ticket for this feature request.

Anyway I prefer clicking on DOI that on Locate, and I think both options could coexist.

I finally got around to implementing implicit linking of URLs and DOIs in the citeproc-js CSL processor. The developers will need to take a look, but if the facility passes muster, automatic linking will become available in a future Zotero release.
