Don and Bob,

I added the following js change on the Bib_display.html page, but it 
doesn't work.  Did either of you get the ADDTHIS button to actually save 
the record and not the library name?

Here's my code:

<!-- AddThis Bookmark Button BEGIN -->
<a href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php"; onclick="addthis_url   = 
document.getElementByID('recordnum'); addthis_title = 'REPLACE THIS TEXT 
WITH BOOK TITLE'; return addthis_click(this);" target="_blank"><img 
src="http://s5.addthis.com/button1-bm.gif"; width="125" height="16" 
border="0" alt="AddThis Social Bookmark Button" /></a> <script 
type="text/javascript">var addthis_pub = 'daberge';</script><script 
type="text/javascript" 
src="http://s5.addthis.com/js/widget.php?v=10";></script> 
<!-- AddThis Bookmark Button END -->

You can view it in action at clicnet.clic.edu:2082.  I did a search for 
'frogs.'

Thanks for any help on this.
