German page with et all

guradon

Hi everybody,

I am trying to make my own style and have trouble with the language settings.
So if the language setting is "de" -> Pages are fine with "S." but the "et al." becomes "u. a." when I switch to an English setting "us" -> I have the "et. al." but the text for pages is "p." or "Pp.".

I would like to have the "et al." and "S."(German version for Page/Pages) in my style can I just influence these variables through the language settings ?

best regards

Tim

should be what you're looking for.
Any trouble let us know.
If the style is more widely applicable, please consider making it available ones it's done.

Hio,

sure will post it when done.
As I understand I have to add after </info> :

<terms>
<locale xml:lang="de">
<term name="et-al">et al.</term>
</locale>
</terms>

done.

The language is set to "de" but its not using the German variables but I set language German !? (still Pp. instead of S.)

<style xmlns="http://purl.org/net/xbiblio/csl" xml:lang="de" class="in-text">

please help me!

To set a fixed style locale, you should use default-locale (not xml:lang). Note that Zotero 2.0 doesn't (yet) support default-locale, something which probably will get fixed in 2.1.

Thank you!

It is working know just changed the language setting through the about:config
-> languagesettings
and added the text
<terms>
<locale xml:lang="de">
<term name="et-al">et al.</term>
</locale>
</terms>
after </info>
looks like I forgot to restart FF once.
