just to say that the gist method is still an option, happy to upload for you.
Also, if you're on (debian based) Linux, the svn client for nautilus is now called Rabbit VCS
Thanks Rintze for the link but I can not still figure it out.
I think I will consider posting for adamsmith who has offered to upload it. Hope to learn how to do it from anyone out there in future.
Thanks.
hey,
I uploaded the style - thanks a lot for contributing!
some comments - the style did not validate, I needed to change a couple of things (there is no "hobby" section under author, the term "no date" is without hyphen, "no-author" doesn't exists as a term - it's "anonymous", there is no variable="year" - you need to use issued or a macro - those were the main ones.)
Do validate your styles to prevent these things:
http://www.zotero.org/support/dev/creating_citation_styles#xml_validation
Also I didn't look at this carefully, but some of the things you did still looked a little rough - e.g. it's a good idea to keep the bibliography section clean and mainly call macros and do most of your if loops in those parts - check e.g. the APA style for an example.
But that's all small stuff, my first styles were much worse, so once again thanks for contributing.
I attempted to validate the style and the error messages are as below. How do I go about it since most of the errors seem to come from between the declaration and info sections.
#
Error: Saw <?. Probable cause: Attempt to use an XML processing instruction in HTML. (XML processing instructions are not supported in HTML.)
At line 1, column 2
<?xml v #
Error: Start tag seen without seeing a doctype first. Expected <!DOCTYPE html>.
a lot of these errors are because the validator treats this as html not as xml -
there are some options you can check to make this work, but more easily you could just upload the csl file instead of pasting it into the text field (which is what I suppose you did)
Yes, you are perfectly right. I pasted it into the text field using validator.nu. However upon using the URL, the messages are as below. Does it mean that I have to make some changes before the style validates? What's your opinion/suggestion?
1.
Warning: text/* type without a charset parameter seen. Defaulting to US-ASCII per section 3.1 of RFC 3023.
you need to have
http://xbiblio.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xbiblio/csl/schema/tags/0.8/csl.rnc
in the schema box.
You need to check "Be lax about http content".
The desired output you'll get is below. The warnings are OK:
