Problem with adding Style

Hi there,
got a style made by an employee of my University. Unfortunatly i am not able to add the sytle to my zotero-manager. Got the error: "Zotero_Style_FGUL_1.1.4.csl scheint keine gültige CSL-Datei zu sein."
..." seems not to be a valid CSL-file."

Can someone help me ?

Thx in advance

  • have you tried validating?
    http://www.zotero.org/support/dev/creating_citation_styles#xml_validation

    please post the style to gist.github.com if you need help with it - easier to look at and, if necessary, to download.
  • Hi adamsith,
    thank's for your help. Just uploaded the style to gist.github.com. (http://gist.github.com/593493)

    will try now to validate the file with emacs nXML mode - excited if i get some results.
    Pherhaps you can have a look trough the uploaded file.

    Thx!
  • That file validates & installs in Zotero 2.0.8 for me. You might check the character encoding of your txt file and/or just download the raw version you posted to github.
  • Thank you so much ! after downloading the raw version and saving it again it worked!!
    THANK YOU!
