Deploying style from a web link

chris.fane
i seem to have issues with installing a style from a weblink. i assume its something to do with extensions, as when renamed to an .xml file i can see them, but when as a .csl i get 404 errors. I assume its a problem with my hosting provider.

as a work around i was wondering if anyone knew how the install links on this site functioned ?

Thanks

    You'll have to figure out the 404 issue on your end, but to trigger the install dialog in Zotero you'll need to serve the styles with the MIME type text/x-csl.

    Assuming you have appropriate permissions, you should be able to do that with a line like this in an .htaccess file:

    AddType text/x-csl .csl

    unfortunatly im on a shared IIS server, and i cant find any option within the plesk interface to add mime types, so ill have to speak to my hosting provider :-(

    chris: why not just add it to the zotero repo?
