Different styles for first footnote

Nicolae

Hi,
I want make a new style for footnote. The first occurece o title will be long, all the rest short (autor, title, page). Can I make that for Zotero?
Here is the sample for footnotes (in a Romanian style):

1. Milbank, John, Theology and Social Theory. Beyond Secular Reason, Oxford, Ed. Blackwell, 1997, p. 105.
2......
3......
4. Milbank, John, Theology and Social Theory. Beyond Secular Reason, p. 23.
5....
6. Milbank, John, Theology and Social Theory. Beyond Secular Reason, pp. 140-144.

How can make that at note 4 and 6, Zotero put only author and title?

This isn't really a Zotero question, since the style language (CSL) is independent of this project, but ...

First, make sure you use the updated schema.

Within that, you can use something like (not validated, so make sure you check):

<text macro="author"/>
<choose>
  <if position="first">
    <text variable="date"/>
  </if>
</choose>
<text macro="title"/>
...

Thanks, Bruce, for your answer.
Where can I find a tutorial for learn csl style?

Sorry, Bruce, It doesn't work. The attribute "macro" (<text macro="author") isn't in rnc.csl
The validation fails.

There is no tutorial; we're hoping to address that, but I'm just too busy.

Are you validating against the new draft schema I link to above? An example APA style is here.

Nicolae

Yes, now it's ok, with the new schema! Thanks!
I try to make a romanian style. It remains one problem: the characters şţăî don't work with OpenOffice extention, but they work fine with create bibliography in Firefox and paste in OpenOffice.
Thank you, Bruce,
