Thanks for any hint, Joh

Easiest is by using a special macro breaking it up in two bits, like so: \def\mycite#1{\cite[author][#1], \cite[year][#1]} there is a way to create 'official' alternatives, but it is quite a bit more cumbersome. Cheers, taco
Taco, how would I define a new 'cite' alternative along the lines of 'authoryear'/'authoryears' that would result in 'Author et. al., 2004'?

there is a way to create 'official' alternatives, but it is quite a bit more cumbersome. Thanks for that. The problem here is that I use XML as the text source and would like to be able to use 'authoryear', 'authoryears' as well as 'mycite' occasionally, which I switch to and from by the 'opt' option in e.g. '<cite id="hunt:86" opt="authoryear"/>'. If I understand your above

Thanks for your help, Joh

Yes. Get the new one from http://modules.contextgarden.net/bib or wait 'till the new context release (tomorrow, i believe). Cheers, taco
