Why doesn't CROSS REF get data include ISSN for journals, just DOI? #9

This affects linking to SFX properly in some cases

This is a bug. The ISSN is retrieved from CrossRef, but then incorrectly assigned to the DOI field. The code then discards this as it uses the existing DOI entered for the DOI field.

To correct, need to update /local/references/getdata.php to allocate the ISSN retrieved to the correct field ('sn'). A simple fix that can be applied once the code is up on GitHub

Excellent, please apply when ready so we can test.

After fixing one bug found a deeper issue. This issue needs to be resolved by re-write of how the data fetch process works - see also #6, #15, #16 and #59

Should work OK with latest code - please test

Tested on MyCourse beta on 28th February, 2014. We tested two things: 'are we able to retrieve article-level information from a DOI?'; and 'do specific DOIs still point to the SFX menu, or do they now resolve to the article?'. Both questions are resolved, so this one is fixed. Thanks!
