Footnotes in footnotes

Footnotes in footnotes

[Giuseppe Bilotta]

As of subject. I browsed the past messages, and I've seen that Hans Hagen was working on it ... so, is it somewhat possible? (maybe
a decoupling of the command like \footnotemark/footnotetext in LaTeX?)

This decoupling would be a good idea in some other circumstances as
well.

what exactly do you want to achieve? There is \note[ref] to refer to a
(previous) footnote.

I want this:

\starttext

So this is what I want\footnote{I mean, this is a footnote\footnote{a footnote
is text put at the end of the page}, and there should be a footnote within this
footnote}.

\stoptext

The footnote created within the footnote gets the correct number (one more than
the top-level one), the numbers are increased (the next footnote in the text is
numbered one more than the nested footnote), but the nested footnote text
doesn't appear (it should appear as a regular footnote text  right after the
top-level-footnote-text).

Hope I made myself clear.

In descriptive text: sometimes I *do* want a footnotemarker in the

I don't want a footnotemarker but *do* want the footnotes to be
marked. Contexts \footnote[-]{..} cannot do this because the resulting
footnote cannot be referenced to.

In LaTeX, this is why there are \footnotemark and \footnotetext
commands.

Exactly. I hope to see this in ConTeXt soon. And better than the LaTeX one; in
LaTeX, it's hard to use \footenote[mark,text] more than once per time: you have
to manually set the numbers in cases like

rich\footnotemark text\footnotemark with\footnotemark lots of footnotes

then \footnotetext would only refer to the last footnotemark. In ConTeXt, this
could be made better with

rich\footnotemark[one] text\footnotemark[two] with\footnotemark[three]

and then

\footnotetext[one]{text for one}

etc.

Let's see what Hans Hagen thinks of it ...

I guess that you have the largest collection of funny requests -) I think
it would be very entertaining of you write an articles on all those cases.

So, in case one, what should happen to the footnote text? Should is just
disappear? 

are 

\footnotemark
\footnotetext

the most natural names for this?

Here is what I think is the most sensible approach, based on current
context behaviour, which is:

\footnote does three things:

1. typeset a reference in the text
2. typeset the number in front of the footnote
3. typeset the footnote text

Parts 2 and 3 are done by one macro (\dostartfootnote), and it is
currently not possible to change
that behaviour. 

\note does only the first thing:

1. typeset a reference in the text 

LaTeX's \footnotemark/\footnotetext uses a somewhat different approach.

Proposed extension:

a) Make a new user command \footnotetext, that only does 2. and 3.

   \footnote then basically becomes
\def\footnote[#1]#2{\footnotetext[#1]{#2}\note[#1]}
   This allows 'non-marking' footnotes to appear at the bottom of the
page.

b) Add an option to suppress the footnote marker and/or indentation in
front of the 
   footnote's text. This allows 'global' footnotes that don't need a
symbol.

   (but keep the internal reference, just make it expand to nothing. I'd
like to
    be able to do: "see the footnote on page xxx". Only typesetting is
disabled
    by this option).

   The cleanest way (IMO) of implementing this is to split \footnotetext
in a part that
   typeset 2. and a part that typesets 3.

I hope this is clear enough.

...which allows for nested footnotes without having to worry about a
\postponefootnotes ... in the sense that \footnote itself should set a variable,
and if the variable is already set, it should automatically trigger
\postponefootnotes too.

Talking about weird request ... this also gave me the idea that you can let two
footnotes have the same number:

\starttext
Let's put a footnote\footnote[ref]{this is a footnote.} and another
footnote\note[ref] that is the same as the previous.
\stoptext

(ok, that's probably no news for anybody, but it is for me ... :-))

Well, try this with 

bla \footnote{How do you say \TeX\footnote{in \TeX\ this is
keyed in as \type {\TeX, or \TeX\ or \TeX{}}}}

\def\xfootnote#1{\footnote{#1}}

bla \xfootnote{How do you say \TeX\xfootnote{in \TeX\ this is
keyed in as \type {\TeX, or \TeX\ or \TeX{}}}}

\end

and you will see why it fails. The footnote commands are rather complicated
because they need to take care of this and worse, formatting on the fly,
like double coolumn footnotes).

Sure, that's one can be solved with one line [just did it]. 

Till the next update use: 

\postponefootnotes\footnote 

in the inner note; this should work ok, although i would certainly try to
avoid nested notes -)

works like a charm :-) but only one level deep (that is, not for footnotes in
footnotes in footnotes ... but who's ever going to use footnotes nested so
deep?)

I would too. But sometimes the need arises; and moreover I'm now typesetting a
little TeX ad, so I want to show some nice features :-)

Footnotes in footnotes

[Jose Luis Arellano]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 336 bytes --]

Dear list,
I want to report a possible bug (I think), when one try to put a footnote
into another footnote, here is MWE (from wiki):

\starttext
This\footnote{Or that\footnote{Or possibly even the other.}, if you
prefer.} is a sentence with a footnote.
\stoptext

As you can see, the second footnote is not placed in the page.

Thanks.

While testing/evaluating different options/markups, the topic of using
“footnote within footnote” has appeared and I’ve tried to test it in the
ConTeXt, but, strangely-enoug, I can confirm that it does not work here
as reported by Jose.

Here is the console output:

Re: Footnotes in footnotes

[Otared Kavian]

Hi Jose Luis,

Indeed the example you sent does not work as expected, but as far as I remember for nested footnotes one can use the following construction (I found this exmaple in my archives…):

%%%% begin nested-footnotes.tex
\starttext

This\footnote{Or that\note[footB], if you prefer.}%
\footnotetext[footB]{Or possibly even the other\note[footC].}%
\footnotetext[footC]{It could be something entirely different.}
is a sentence with nested footnotes.

\stoptext
%%%% end nested-footnotes.tex

Best regards: OK
