@Gracile: If you are wanting pluralization to happen automatically based on the content of the field, CSL 1.0 doesn't seem to support that. It probably should, but this is an item for the CSL group in the first instance (posting there now)
-
I have this fixed and tested locally. The change to the locale file (a separate term for "apostrophe") will need to be routed through the CSL group, and then the update will need to be populated across the distributed locale files. This might take…
-
@MHSmith: Thanks for this report. That's certainly an unintended side-effect. I'll have to give it some thought and take a closer look, but off the top of my head ... The processor does discriminate between apostrophes and quotes, but it uses the …

With Firebug installed, highlighting a nearby chunk of text, followed by a left click and "Inspect this element" is also handy.
-
The experimental code is a compromise; it tags items on import as "new", so they can reviewed as a batch via a special view. It would need an update to run against the trunk. I can update the patch, if there's interest.
-
The [1b,45] case really is where the need for special handling comes to the surface. The Zotero citation that generates this might contain (say) four items, one of which (somewhere among the four) has been previously cited, and (say) three of which…
-
The problem is that the composition of the in-text backreference numbers (the superscripted numbers in the text) is governed by the sequence and organization of the refs in the endnotes section. The word processors can't handle that, so we would ne…

My first reaction to this was, "oh ... forget it." On the homeward commute last night, though, I thought it through a bit, and it might not be that hard to implement in the processor (with appropriate extensions to the CSL language), depending on t…

@DenDen60: That's the title of the thread here, and that's the error message, true. The user who reported the "attached file could not be found" error message above (briank) found that the problem went away when AdBlock was disabled. Is that true …

Zotero groups have worked out very well here for individual supervision of writing projects. They haven't worked out as well (yet) in classroom environments. The web interface is probably the main issue; students here don't all have personal machi…

Try type="webpage". There is a table of item types and associated field mappings here: http://gsl-nagoya-u.net/http/pub/csl-fields/
-
Also, re statutes, we need to work up conventions for what metadata goes in which fields for this item type, as well as requests for additional fields, as required. This needs a community discussion to settle the issues, but our population has unti…

1) A cursory search doesn't show up any translators for UK statute law sites (statutelaw.gov.uk, legislation.gov.uk). Is there an official central resource for translators, something like addons.mozilla.org, that I should be checking for work alread…
-
Welcome aboard! Development for law has been languishing, but not for want of good intentions; Zotero 2.1 will have much-improved infrastructure for legal styles, and this is certainly a good time to dust off the xLII translators. If you do any wor…
-
Looking at a clean install of the trunk version, with the trunk integration plugin, I can't seem to reproduce this. This sounds like a problem in the CSL processor (which I wrote); if the processor crashes, you get a dead OK button as you describe.…
-
The reason for asking is that the Zotero 2.0 series (2.0.9 being the latest) does not have a means of setting et al. in italics. It's possible in Zotero 2.1 beta (which can run CSL 1.0 styles). As that's a beta version, you would want to back up y…
-
What version of Zotero are you running?
-
@joycekwc, No, the pages ajlyon links to contain the information that you need. Try this page (thirteenth line in the table, showing the Zotero field and CSL variable mappings for the "Report Type" label in the English version of the Zotero UI).
-
Zotero 2.1 beta can do this. Be sure to back up your data and your document first, if you decide to give it a try.
-
Aha! From Richard Ishida: http://rishida.net/blog/?p=222 Looks like this may do the trick. (Edit: One more solution into the mix, anyway!)
-
Here is a comprehensive test suite, from which data for a normalizing function could be extracted: http://www.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/NormalizationTest.txt Looks like there are about 18,000 of these things. Per-character SQL lookups are a litt…

Here's a tutorial that might be relevant. Can we access java.text.Normalizer in Firefox JS I wonder? http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/i18n/text/normalizerapi.html

Here's a W3C doc on Unicode normalization: http://www.w3.org/TR/charmod-norm/#sec-ChoiceNFC

Well, that's ugly. These certainly have slipped by. The localeCompare() string method used for sorting does not see them as equivalents, so sorting will be messed up. The JavaScript sloppy compare operator == (as opposed to strict compare with ===…

The default is to render the full name of creators, so CSL more or less like the following should produce the effect you're after:

@hayjay: What Bruce said. Reading more carefully, I see that my institutional authors suggestion is at cross purposes to (at least the better part of) your use case. Interested to hear what works for you in the end.
-
@hayjay: At the risk of some criticism from colleagues in CSL for jumping the gun, I'll chime in here with an alternative possibility, drawn from ongoing CSL development. If you have an instance of Zotero 2.1 installed, you might give this style a …

Ctl+Alt+A is the default shortcut key combo for that one. The citation form generated depends on the default export style. Shortcuts are listed in gear icon -> Preferences -> Shortcut Keys. Default export style can be set via gear icon ->…

@GrantRobertson: Sorry I couldn't help. Good luck, and have a nice day.

This might be what you are looking for: http://gsl-nagoya-u.net/http/pub/csl-fields/ Then again, maybe not. Is your question about the UI, or about the underlying database itself?
