Say you want to cite "Perl 5 for Dummies", http://libris.kb.se/bib/5608622 (First click "English" at the top of the page, if the user interface isn't already intelligble.) Just click "CITE", and a list of citations appear, that you can cut-and-paste. At the bottom is the Swedish version of Wikipedia's "cite book" template, which is quite popular. -- Lars Aronsson ([log in to unmask]) Aronsson Datateknik - http://aronsson.se
