\starttables and \footnote

\starttables and \footnote

[Peter Münster]

Hello,
could someone help me with placing a footnote in a multipage-table?
Here an example, where the table overwrite the footnote:

\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\FR
\dorecurse{50}{\NC \tex{MR}	\NC middle row	\NC\MR}
\NC \tex{LR}	\NC last row	\NC\LR
\stoptables
\stoptext

Used versions:
 TeXExec 5.2.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2004

               texexec : TeXExec 5.2.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2004
               texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004
                   tex : pdfeTeX, 3.141592-1.20c-beta-20050121-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4)
               context : ver: 2005.01.13
               cont-en : ver: 2005.01.13  fmt: 2005.1.25  mes: english

Cheers, Peter

Hi Peter,

May be the 
\startlocalfootnotes[n=0]...{\placelocalfootnote}\stoplocalfootnotes is 
an option. Sorry I do not know what the [n=0] is meaning ...

n -> number of columns that footnotes get typeset in

Hello Willi,
I've just discovered, that I had already asked this same question some
months ago (and you gave the same answer), I'm sorry for this...
Perhaps, this is not possible with ConTeXt, but this is, what I'm looking
for:
- multi-page table with horizontal lines
- footnotes, that appear at bottom of each page

I've tried with \appendtoks \flushfootnotes \to \everyshipout
or \flushfootnotes in the table-tail, but this does not work neither...

Nevertheless, thanks for your efforts.
Greetings, Peter

maybe i need to make this configurable, just for the moment:

\setuplayout[height=8cm]

\bgroup
\let\postponefootnotes\relax
\starttabulate
\HL
\NC test \NC test \NC \NR
\NC test \footnote{test} \NC test \NC \NR
\HL
\NC test \NC test \NC \NR
\NC test \NC test \NC \NR
\NC test \NC test \NC \NR
\NC test \footnote{test} \NC test \NC \NR
\HL
\NC test \NC test \NC \NR
\NC test \NC test \NC \NR
\NC test \NC test \NC \NR
\NC test \footnote{test} \NC test \NC \NR
\HL
\NC test \NC test \NC \NR
\NC test \NC test \NC \NR
\stoptabulate
\egroup

\stoptext

Thank you, Hans!
Unfortunately, there is still a small problem: since I need also table head
and table tail, and sometimes also vertical lines, I use \starttables.
With the following example, the first page begins a little bit lower and
overwrites the first footnote:

\setuplayout[height=8cm]

\starttext
\bgroup
\let\postponefootnotes\relax
\starttablehead
\HL
\NC command     \NC meaning     \NC\SR
\HL
\stoptablehead
\starttabletail
\HL
\stoptabletail
\starttables[|l|l|]
\NC \tex{NC}    \NC next column\footnote{first footnote}\NC\FR
\dorecurse{10}{\NC \tex{MR}     \NC middle row  \NC\MR}
\NC \tex{LR}    \NC last row\footnote{last footnote}\NC\LR
\stoptables
\egroup

\stoptext

I tried some negative \vskip in the beginning, but without success...

Greetings, Peter
