Remove space between p. and page number in APA citation

tjschu
I need to adapt APA 6th edition to remove the space in the citation between "p." and the page number.

So, from (1999, p. 13) to (1999, p.13)

I'm figuring that it must be an edit I need to make in the following section of code, but I haven't hit on the change that works.

<macro name="citation-locator">
<group>
<choose>
<if locator="chapter">
<label variable="locator" form="long" text-case="capitalize-first"/>
</if>
<else>
<label variable="locator" form="short"/>
</else>
</choose>
<text variable="locator" prefix=" "/>
</group>
</macro>

Any ideas?

    Delete prefix=“ “ in the last bit there.

    Also, you will need to change the style title and ID at the top of the code to make sure your changes aren’t overwritten by updates to the official style.

    Too easy. That did it. Thanks.
