In the Record view tab in ALA and AVH (e.g. http://biocache.ala.org.au/occurrences/search;jsessionid=061329F04C04884C97339F10AB621CEF?q=lsid:http://id.biodiversity.org.au/node/apni/2894267#tab_recordsView), could the ‘View record’ link please change colour noticeably once it’s been clicked, to show clearly which records have been opened and viewed in full? Currently there’s no change in colour evident (or if there is it’s so subtle that you can’t distinguish it from un-clicked links). This change would help prevent re-opening already viewed records and wasting time, and would be incredibly helpful because there’s very little to distinguish the records from one another bar their collection date and catalogue number, neither of which are memorable, e.g.:
