Yet Another Summon Patch

Summon is putting two request buttons on our book detail pages, each with different functionality. One requests the book from the catalog. The other places an ILL request. The problem is that they LOOK IDENTICAL and the HAVE THE SAME LABEL.

I wrote these two lines of jQuery three CSS rules to quickly make the buttons distinguishable until someone wakes up at ProQuest and fixes it for everyone. Here's what it does for us. You'll want to change the label text and the colors to fit your various mascots:

/* Change the label of the Illiad button */
.documentActions a[href^="http://gvsu.summon"] {
background: #069 !important;
color: white !important;
}
.documentActions a[href^="http://gvsu.summon"]:after {
content: " GVSU Copy";
}
.documentActions a[href*="illiad"]:after {
content: " from Another Library";
}
