Citation Styles: superscript brackets in citation

Dear all,

I'm having trouble getting in line citations to look like [1-4] and superscripted. I modified the AMA style by adding the prefix and suffix items to the layout tag, but the opening prefix bracket does not get superscripted. The rest is superscripted just fine. Any suggestions? The relevant code is below.

Thanks.

<citation>
<option name="collapse" value="citation-number"/>
<sort>
<key variable="citation-number"/>
</sort>
<layout prefix="[" suffix="]" delimiter="," vertical-align="sup">
<text variable="citation-number" />
<group prefix="(" suffix=")">
<label variable="locator" form="short"/>
<text variable="locator"/>
</group>
</layout>
</citation>

it's not possible to really solve this

either you have the bracket problem, or, if you code the style as I suggest in that thread, you have multi-ciations with (exactly) two items as [1][2] instead of [1, 2]. [1-3] will work correctly again, so I tend to prefer that version.
