I ran into this a week or two ago but haven't had time to look into it. I used a manually modified citation style that I got from one of those main citation style sites. What I did notice is that using the default style (i.e. not specifying any CSL at all) works. I'm not sure, but I suspect that piecemeal turning the default CSL into one that is accepted might reveal what causes the issue. Then it's easier to assign blame, pandoc-citeproc, pandoc, XML parser lib, etc... /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: mag...@therning.org jabber: mag...@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus As long as there are ill-defined goals, bizarre bugs, and unrealistic schedules, there will be Real Programmers willing to jump in and Solve The Problem, saving the documentation for later.
