footnotes and tables

footnotes and tables

[Peter Münster]

Hello,
is there a possibility to use footnotes in tables?
Unfortunately, the table gets printed over the footnote in the following
example:

\def\Line{\NC \tex{HL}  \NC horizontal line \NC\AR}
\starttext
\starttablehead
\HL
\NC command \NC meaning \NC\SR
\HL
\stoptablehead
\starttabletail
\HL
\stoptabletail
\starttables[|l|l|]
\NC \tex{NC}    \NC next column\footnote{A footnote}\NC\AR
\dorecurse{40}{\Line}
\stoptables
\stoptext

TIA for any help, Peter

Hello Peter,

may be the following is suiting your needs:

\def\Line{\NC \tex{HL}  \NC horizontal line \NC\AR}
\starttext
Here is some other text followed by a table.
\blank
\startlocalfootnotes[n=0]
\starttablehead
\HL
\NC command \NC meaning \NC\SR
\HL
\stoptablehead
\starttabletail
\HL
\stoptabletail
\starttables[|l|l|]
\NC \tex{NC}    \NC next column\footnote{A footnote}\NC\AR
\dorecurse{20}{\Line}
\stoptables
{\placelocalfootnotes}
\stoplocalfootnotes
\blank
The text proceeds here.

\stoptext

No, I'm sorry. I would like the footnote on the same page as the
footnotemark...
But anyway: thank you!

In my application, the table is several pages long.

If there is a way to place the footnotes in the footer, then I could play
with the pageheight and footerdistance etc. Perhaps, this would be the
solution?

Cheers, Peter
