// This code will change ISBN links to point to the url of your choice,
// instead of Special:Booksources. 
//
// How to use it:
//
// First, you must copy this code to your user javascript page. This is 
// at User:<your username>/monobook.js . My username is Lunchboxhero so
// my javascript page is User:Lunchboxhero/monobook.js . You must be logged
// in to edit your javascript page.
//
// Once you have copied the code and saved the page, you need to refresh your
// browser's cache. For Mozilla/Safari/Konqueror: hold down Shift while clicking 
// Reload (or press Ctrl-Shift-R), IE: press Ctrl-F5, Opera: press F5.
//
// The code should now work, as long as you are logged in.
//
// You can change the destination URL.  Go to [[Wikipedia:Book sources]] and copy 
// the URL of the site you want to use (right-click the link, then click "Copy Link 
// Location", "Copy Target", or similar).  Put the new URL between the quotes next 
// to magicURL, in place of the URL now there.
//
// The current magicURL includes Wikimedia's Amazon Referral reference. That means if you click on 
// the ISBN link, go to Amazon and end up buying the book, Wikimedia will earn some small amount
// of money from that sale.  If you don't want to support Wikimedia in this way, but do want ISBNs
// to link to Amazon, replace the current magicURL with "http://www.amazon.com/gp/search?ie=UTF8&field-isbn=MAGICNUMBER"
//
// Good luck, and if you have any questions, leave a comment on the discussion
// page of User:Lunchboxhero/monobook.js . Thanks to Superm401 and drrngravy for their
// improvements.
//
// (Every line that starts with "//" is a comment and can be discarded.)
