Hi Graham,
Thanks a bunch for your insight as to how I can accomplish this.
Bypassing the .jsp/prompt shouldn't be too hard!!
I'm hoping you can help me with this one now.... :-)
I have been working all day to try and figure out where the correct
place would be to put some code to bypass the Item page (short and/or
long listing) and go straight to the display bitstream url. I have
looked at display-item.jsp, DspaceServlet.java, ItemTag.jsp,
ItemListTag.jsp, and HandleServlet.java, but I can't figure out where
the best place to put it would be (without messing anything else up) and
the exact code to use. We have this one (bogus if you ask me...J )
collection of Library catalog cards (there is basically no meaningful
metadata for these - they have a non-meaningful title/document name -
and want to only bypass the Item page if item.owningCollection = 4.
This is kind of an important project for NASA and I would appreciate any
help you could give me on this.
Thanks a bunch!
Sue

Yes... and no.
There is no way of changing this behaviour without altering the DSpace
code (which you have access to).
To be strictly accurate, you would still have to write code to
accomplish this with 1.5 - the key difference is that you aren't forced
to alter the code that is shipped as DSpace (it can be written as
entirely new code), and that it should be easier to migrate that code to
a later release of DSpace in the future.
This step / code does create a license file/bundle on the item, and I'm
not sure how strictly that is enforced/assumed in the rest of the
system. But regardless, you would be strongly advised if making this
change to retain the code that attaches the license to the item - just
have it run without displaying the JSP form asking users to agree to it.
