Do you have an example URL for this? - I tested our test cases https://sbts.on.worldcat.org/oclc/667874424 and https://sbts.on.worldcat.org/oclc/795005226 which both seem to work okay for me. |

Okay, for that URL I see the Open World Cat as the top translator which then also works fine. But I also see WorldCat Discovery Services as another translator (with the same priority 100) which will lead to an error. On such a page the WorldCat Discovery Service translator should not be available, because it is not working. The problem occurs because the value of extracted database ID which is needed for creating the RIS URL is translators/WorldCat Discovery Service.js Line 87 in bffebf9 Thus, we can simply test for the presence of an element with id |

Oh, yeah, I get WDS first. Since they're both 100, it's probably nondeterministic. |

(I had never seen this before it was reported, so no other ideas, no; the proposed solution sounds good) |

This seems to be happening pretty consistently on worldcat.org. I'm not sure of the difference between WDS and OW, but it'd be nice to avoid the error message.
