Formatted Citations Response

The result is returned as a string of plain text, however it includes HTML formatting, so could be inserted directly into an HTML application. For example:

<p class="citation_style_TURABIAN">McPherson, James M. <i>Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era</i>. New York: Oxford University Press, 1988. </p>

which results in a formatted citation such as:

McPherson, James M. Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era. New York: Oxford University Press, 1988.

If 'all' is specified as the cformat, all available citation formats will be returned in a single string.

The CSS class included in the HTML "p" tag is intended to reference a stylesheet definition elsewhere in the HTML. Below are CSS definitions for the class references returned by the API.
