I think I get the logic behind it. The problem is the inconsistency it
creates for the viewer. Does it really matter for them if I wrote my
footnote inline or not?

Thanks for your answer.

[O] HTML Export - Footnotes inconcistency

[Matthias Paulmier]

Hello,

I came across this problem today (or maybe it is intended but I couldn't
find any explanation in the docs). There is an inconsistency on how
inline/anonymous and named footnotes are exported in HTML. For example,
with the following source:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
#+TITLE: Testing footnotes
#+LANGUAGE: en

Testing[fn::test1] footnotes[fn:2]

[fn:2] test2
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Exports to this :

--8<---cut here---start->8---
Footnotes: 


1 test1

2 
test2 
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

We can see here that the named footnote creates a paragraph of the same
class as the parent container "footpara" whereas the inlined one doesn't
create this.  If this is intended, why?  If not, which is the intended
one?

Reagards.
