Style Request: Cardiff University Harvard
Hey guys. I've just stumbled upon Zotero and I love it, but unfortunately there doesn't seem to be the style of citation that I need. It's called the Cardiff Harvard style, which is specific to Cardiff University. It's a tweaked Harvard style, but I don't know how to create my own. I wouldn't know where to start with HTML
Here's the style guide:
http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/insrv/resources/guides/inf057.pdf
Some of the differences include:
Citing - not sure what standard Harvard uses, but in CUH sytle, et al. is used for three or more authors
Bibliography
There is usually a ". " instead of ", " apart from between volume and page of a journal e.g. "17(5), pp. 201-203."
When referencing chapters, there is a colon after the In. i.e. "In: P, Kumar" and the edition of the book is also referenced after the title in this style "3rd ed. " with the rd being superscript
When referencing journals there is no comma between the name of the publication/journal and the volume
when referencing websites, the title of the article is in italics and after the title in normal script is " [Online]"
Sorry if that was a bit long winded or hard to understand and thanks in advance to anyone who does this!

I had a go at doing this myself, and I've managed to get the first two things done (I think) using the zotero editing thing (chrome://zotero/content/tools/csledit.xul)
Now I'm really stuck though. I'm not sure how to add the edition of the book and superscript and I can't make any of the other changes.
I also don't know how to create a .cls file from the .txt file I've made. I just copied and pasted the changed code to a txt file and re-named it .cls. But it says this xml file does not seem to have any style information associated with it?
Any help would be much appreciated.
On the first issue - superscript works with:
vertical-align="super"
but how to get it small?
I am trying to help a friend use Zotero with the Cardiff University Harvard style.
I was wondering if you have had any success on creating a Zotero style for this? Have you posted the result somewhere?
Regards
