eek you mean parse the final plain text citation to infer a marked up

language for that amount of natural language processing.
yes - thats after inferring the citations from their position in the HTML.
Surely no one writes that stuff by hand, didn't it always start out life
marked up in a citation database like bibtex or endnote or something?
So if you can get hold of the original source life is much easier...
you would've thought so...
I'll ask around but I think the authors cut and paste the citations
from other locations and they were subsequently stored in a single
<div> or <p> - the creator of the cms was very short cited ;-)
If you think its not really feasible to parse a plain text citation
into a marked up version then that's good feedback - it could well be
that a percentage need to be done by hand.
