Changing symbol for combining authors - possible?
Hello,
when choosing "symbol" for combining several authors in a citation or in the bibliography, the default symbol used is "&".
Is there any possibility to change this symbol?
Thanks for the support.

<terms>
<locale xml:lang="en">
<term name="and">
<text>AND</text>
<symbol>$$$</symbol>
</term>
</locale>
</terms>
where AND and $$$ are your text and symbol and respectively. This might not be quite right, but you get the general idea - play around with it in the preview panel.
If I'm wrong and you can't define the symbol, you can still define the text and to be a symbol (that's definitely possible).
I figured out a way to change the text, which is
...
<term name="and">MYTERM</term>
...
Doesn't seem to work with the "&"-symbol though; but changing the "and"-term does the trick.
Thanks again

I have one more problem. How to put a space after "p" i the page number in a citation. Instead of (Kuhn p.20) I'd like to have (Kuhn p. 20).
Thank you for your help and patience :)

The trick is to remove the "and" attribute from the cs:name element.
The "p." can be addes either as a prefix
<text variable="locator" prefix="p."/>
I that case just add a space to the prefix:
<text variable="locator" prefix="p. "/>
Or it can (more likely) be added as a label variable, along these lines
<label variable="locator" form="short"/>
<text variable="locator"/>
In that case you'll need to get a space between the two:
You can do that using prefix=" " on the second line:
<text variable="locator" prefix=" "/>
