This works for export, but it would be nice if plain footnotes were disabled entirely. My problem is that doing a footnote sort C-u C-C C-X s generates a whole lot of unwanted footnotes of the form [2006] etc. All of my footnotes are of the form [fn:N], but the aforementioned [2006] appears in references to law reports. Is there some way that "plain" footnotes can be disabled for all purposes? Thanks for any help. Alan -- Alan L Tyree http://www2.austlii.edu.au/~alan Tel: 04 2748 6206 sip:172385@iptel.org
