Description Ian Walls 2011-09-02 15:13:24 UTC
We've noticed that where the subfield 9 in the 6XX and 7XX fields is first in
the list of subheadings causes there to be dashes in the staff "Normal" view of
the record. That subfield seems to be used to hold the link to the authority
record, When a new heading is added and the record saved, making a link to the
authorities,  sometimes the 9 is first and sometimes second and sometimes last.
 But if it is first (before the a) there are dashes in front as if the subfield
a were a subheading rather than a heading.

The problem is that if the subfield 9 is first, while it's not pushed to the subfields loop in the GetMarc<whatever> subroutines of C4/Biblio.pm, it's still counted, and the next subfield is viewed as "second" even though it's actually first.  This means a separator is put in front of it.

This bug seems to not appear in XSLT views and as normal views are deprecated, I am closing this WONTFIX.
