invalid style for Atherosclerosis, Thrombosis, Vascular Biology

AnneKleffmann
Hi,
I used the style for Atherosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology from the Zotero download for my manuscript. (which worked just fine!!) But it give "et al." for multiple authors.
However, the journal does not allow for "et al." (see instructions for authors:http://atvb.ahajournals.org/misc/ifora.shtml).
It is stated there:"All authors must be listed in references. Shortened lists of author names followed by "et al" must be replaced with complete information."
would it be possible to somehow update the style for this journal? any help would be very appreciated. anne

    I'm swamped, so I won't get to this - you can do it yourself by setting the numbers in
    <option name="et-al-min" value="6"/>
    and
    <option name="et-al-use-first" value="6"/>

    So something very large like 100 and 99
    See here for general instructions on changing styles

    Thanks Adam,
    but on the drop down menu I don't have the option to change this style, because "atherosclerosis, thrombosis, and vascular biology" it is not in there...
    help would be greatly appreciated. I am a biologist and unfortunately not a "computer-person".
    thanks,anne

    The style will be listed as American Medical Association right now (they're the same - or at least currently listed as such - installing the atv style just installs the AMA style)

    this is now fixed - there is a new style AMA no et al. in the repository and the arteriosclerosis... style now links to that one.
