OK, but what should I do if I have a \MyNote in a \MyHeading ?

See error-log below:

hm, are you sure that \MyNotes is defined at the top of your file?

Why not use the following mechanism:

\starttext

\definelist[MyNoteList]

\newcounter\MyNotes

\long\def\MyNote#1%
   {\ifhmode\unskip\fi
    \doglobal\increment\MyNotes\relax
    \high{\MyNotes}%
    \expanded{\writetolist[MyNoteList]{\MyNotes}}{#1}}

\dorecurse{1000}{test \MyNote{Whow, another note}\endgraf}

\page \placelist[MyNoteList][criterium=text]

\stoptext

You can format the list any way you like, e.g.:

\def\MyNoteList#1#2#3{#1\quad#2\endgraf}

\placelist[MyNoteList][criterium=text,command=\MyNoteList]

also, you can now cal lthem per chapter,

\placelist[MyNoteList][criterium=chapter]

etc

OK, I have more than 700 footnotes - but when using "location=page" everything works fine.

I was trying to find whether there is something missing when I just continue, and I found the TableOfContent is cut.
But the text and the footnotes as well seem to be OK.


Is there a patch helping me to avoid this error?


Thank you,

Steffen
