Thank you.
I set it to:
InsetLayout Foot
HTMLStyle
span.foot_label {
vertical-align: super;
font-size: smaller;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: underline;
}
div.foot {
display: inline;
font-size: small;
font-weight: medium;
font-family: serif;
font-variant: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
div.foot_inner { font-size: small; text-indent: 0em; margin-right: 15mm;
margin-left: 15mm; margin-top: 5pt; margin-bottom: 5pt; }
EndHTMLStyle
End
And that worked for me for the XHTML and my epub and mobi files.
(By the way, the \newcommand junk left in my XHTML file as mentioned in
previous email caused calibre to not recognize my footnotes and
converted foot to standard, footlabel to flexurl and footinner to
standard. Once I manually removed that line from the XHTML file, then it
worked.)
So I don't have "foot" notes, but simply a note in smaller font and
indented on next line after the superscript number.
Thanks again for the lyx hint.
By the way, my lyx file doesn't seem to have any way to remove the
"Local Layout". Even if I clear it, press validate and click ok, then go
back to settings it is there again.
