I have lost a custom style that I had been using. When I try to reinstall (clicked the plus sign in the style manager, navigated to csl file, clicked install) nothing seems to happen.
yes there are a bunch of problems in that style

Yes, your CSL 0.8.1 style doesn't validate ( http://www.zotero.org/support/dev/creating_citation_styles#validation ). You have a one </info> too many, a call to a non-existing "In: " term (<text term="In: " text-case="lowercase"/>), and a text element with a prefix, but nothing to prefix (<text prefix=" " />). There are several ways to fix the latter two points, but you could use <text value="In: " text-case="lowercase"/> and <text value=" " /> instead.
see and I felt bad for not taking the time to point all of these out - now I'm happy we didn't do it twice.
edit: my solutions are different from what Rintze suggest - I did the more conventional thing, assuming I new what you want I deleted < text prefix=" "/> because it's not followed by anything and thus wouldn't seem to make sense.
I converted the <text term="In: " to <text term="in" text-case="capitalize-first" suffix=": "/>
(ideally gist.github.com - free and no registration.)
