Downloading a csl file on my computer?

Barbotine · April 11, 2017

A PhD student asked me to add some corrections to the European Journal of International Law style (which I created, and it has been validated and is now in the repository). Now I would like to save it on my computer as a csl file, in order to send it to her. I was able to do it yesterday, but now it does not work. I have changed the name of the file a bit, I click on "save style" in the style menu, but if I click on the button "download style", nothing happens. I do not remember how I did it yesterday...

go here:https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:european-journal-of-international-law
Right click on it and press save as. add .csl to the filename.

You're using the editor at editor.citationstyles.org? That should work the way you describe it. On clicking the "Download Style" button, your browser will display a save dialog. You're saying that's no longer the case for you?

Exactly... Maybe I should try another browser. I am working on Firefox

not a general issue -- works for me on Firefox. You've tried restarting the browser?
In a pinch, you can copy the code from the code editor into a text editor (such as Notepad or TextEdit or, better still, a text editor suitable for handling code like Atom or Notepad++)

Well I have tried from 2 different computers, and it did not work either...

and you're using the version at the above URL, yes? Not the Mendeley one or some other version?

I think I have found the problem... The popup blocker I installed because of some disturbing advertisements...
