Oh excellent. What is the basic syntax?
<ref group="foo">...</ref>
<ref group="bar">...</ref>
<ref group="foo">...</ref>
<references group="foo" />
<references group="bar" />
This would be to implement the "hidden
cite", removing the "b"?
Yes.
Well I would argue for somewhat more "obvious" syntax.
backlink="none"
strikes me as a bit opaque.
What would you recommend?
What do you
mean, using the text within the tags? Like <ref
name="foo">Text to append</ref>? That strikes me as inevitably
ambiguous, unless order becomes important again.
Yes, that was the suggestion, and the problem with it. I was wondering
if someone had solved the problem and I simply missed the message.
It's impossible, unless I'm really missing something. If the only two
refs with name "name" in a document are
<ref name="name">Foo</ref>
<ref name="name">Bar</ref>
would the ref text be FooBar or BarFoo? Which is the base and which
is appended? You presumably don't want to make order important again.
