Work page, "more" link in description not expanding when clicked

I've been experiencing a bug on multiple work pages where the clickable "more" link in the description at the top of the page under the title won't expand when clicked. It's not that important but it is an odd behaviour because the link is blue and shows as a link to a script.

It took me quite a few tries before I could find a page with the "more" link to reproduce this, so here one is:

https://www.librarything.com/work/36165/book/3626624

Note that this is a book page for spiralsheep's copy, not a work page. The corresponding work page does not show this behavior for me:

>2 lorax: A quick test on both those work pages demonstrates the description "more" link doesn't function on either of them for me.

For me, "more" also doesn't function on work pages for books that aren't in my catalogue, such as this randomly chosen book (I searched for snow to randomise):

https://www.librarything.com/work/223217

But, again, I can see the link and it links to a script:

"return%20showMore('alphanumericalid');"

Noted, there seem to be a few of these types of issues around the site, might be related.

Ah, I see what's going on.

I have the book in my #2, so its work page presents differently than one where I don't have the book in my catalog - there's no description box with "more" at all in that case for me. I can confirm that for a book not in my catalog the "more" link appears on the work page and doesn't work.

Should be fixed.

On Profile page, tried clicking on 'more' at end of 'Member connections Private watch list' and still nothing happens.

Ok. Found some more places where it was screwy and fixed those. Hopefully I caught them all this time.

Profile page 'more' is also now working.
