README.txt in Footnotes 5

The Footnotes module can be used to create automatically numbered footnotes
within a text. In the place, where you want to add a footnote, enclose the
footnote text within an fn tag: <fn>like this</fn>. The filter will take the
text within the tag and move it to a footnote at the bottom of the page. 
In it's place it will place a number which is also a link to the footnote.

There is also another filter which does the same with a Textile markup style.
Use it together with the Textile module.

By default, footnotes are placed at the end of the text. You can also use a 
<footnotes> or <footnotes /> tag to position it anywhere you want. For Textile
use "footnotes." tag. 


INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS FOR FOOTNOTES.MODULE
----

1. Copy the contents of this module to modules/footnotes folder.
2. Login as site administrator.
3. Activate footnotes on the administer->modules page.
4. To use the footnotes filter in some input formats, go to administer->input formats.
5. For selected input formats, select configure and activate a suitable footnotes filter. 

Note: Typically you want the footnotes filter to be pretty early in the chain. 
For instance the Footnotes Textile style filter outputs Textile markup, so it 
should definitively be before your Textile filter. If you need to lift the 
Footnotes filter higher up, click "rearrange".

Also see section about HTML filter below.


HTML FILTER
----

Footnotes.module is designed such that it can be used together with Drupal's html filter,
and in particular you should have footnotes first and html filter later.

This version of Footnotes has been redesigned so that it only outputs html tags that 
are allowed in a default installation of HTML filter. (Tags used are A, OL and LI.)


KNOWN ISSUES
----

This version uses a new markup for the list of footnotes. It is an OL list with 
CSS taking away the browser generated list numbers and moving the link numbers 
towards the left. All IE versions have a bug that the numbers are slightly lower 
than the baseline of the footnote text. (If you know how to fix this, please tell.)
In addition IE 5.5 has a more serious bug that the footnote number will be on top of
the first letters of the footnote text. There doesn't seem to be a way to fix this.
