Hi,
I have been puzzling over how to typeset footnotes in a HTML document,
most elements have been relatively easy to typeset but I'm stumped with
footnotes. I have been studying the the xml manual in particular
Chapter 7.4 Cross Referencing, but I'm still struggling to get
xmlsetups which come anywhere near working. Any hints to a solution
would be greatly appreciated.
Best Wishes
Keith McKay

Here is a snippet of the HTML document with footnotes
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">

<p class="import-Normal">‘What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have
not been discovered,’ wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson<span
class="footnote"><span class="footnote-indirect"
data-fnref="53-1"></span></span>. Those delicate crucifers with their
manifold faces of four pink or lilac petals striated with veins of
deeper lavender are the perfect introduction to flowers for children. So
delicate and yet hardy.</p>
<p class="import-Normal">I spend some of April abroad, travelling by
road from an unseasonably snowy Austria (‘dieses Wetter ist
verrückt!’<span class="footnote"><span class="footnote-indirect"
data-fnref="53-2"></span></span> as an elderly lady exclaimed to me) to
northern France, and when I come home, it’s to a landscape responding to
substantially increased light levels and temperatures.</p>
<p class="import-Normal">This was the early sixties. Like many
thousands, we were rehoused from Maryhill in the heart of urban Glasgow
to this peripheral housing scheme which completely changed the character
of what had been a village. Within a decade those glasshouses were
abandoned, glass broken in the frames, and a row of shops that included
a chippy and a betting shop soon replaced them, betting ‘off’ licensed
race-tracks having become legal in 1961.<span class="footnote"><span
