-<h3>Footnotes in captions</h3>
-<p/>Footnotes in captions are especially tricky: they present problems of
-their own, on top of the problems one experiences with
-<a href="FAQ-ftnsect.html">footnotes in section titles</a> (footnotes migrating to
-to the list of figures or tables, or
-<a href="FAQ-extrabrace.html">apparently random errors</a> because
-<code>\</code><code>footnote</code> is a fragile command), and with
-<a href="FAQ-footintab.html">footnotes in tables</a> (typically, the footnote
-simply disappears). Fortunately, the requirement for footnotes in
-captions is extremely rare: if you are experiencing problems, it is
-worth reviewing what you are trying to say by placing this footnote:
-other options are to place text at the bottom of the float, or to
-place a footnote at the point where you refer to the float.
-<p/>Note that the <i>threeparttable</i> scheme (see, again,
-<a href="FAQ-footintab.html">footnotes in tables</a>) also applies
-to notes in captions, and may very well be preferable to whatever you
-were thinking of.
-<p/>If you <em>are</em> going to proceed:
-<ul>
-<li> use an optional argument in your <code>\</code><code>caption</code> command, that
- doesn&#8217;t have the footnote in it; this prevents the footnote
- appearing in the &#8220;List of &#8230;&#8221;, and
-<li> put your whole float in a <code>minipage</code> so as to keep
- the footnotes with the float.
-</ul>
-so we have:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\begin{figure}
- \begin{minipage}{\textwidth}
- ...
- \caption[Caption for LOF]%
- {Real caption\footnote{blah}}
- \end{minipage}
-\end{figure}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-However, <em>as well as</em> all of the above, one <em>also</em> has to
-deal with the tendency of the <code>\</code><code>caption</code> command to produce the
-footnote&#8217;s text twice. For this last problem, there is no tidy
-solution this author is aware of.
-<p/>If you&#8217;re suffering the problem, a well-constructed <code>\</code><code>caption</code>
-command in a <code>minipage</code> environment within a float (as
-in the example above) can produce <em>two</em> copies of the footnote
-body &#8220;blah&#8221;. (In fact, the effect only occurs with captions that are
-long enough to require two lines to be typeset, and so wouldn&#8217;t appear
-with such a short caption as that in the example above.)
-<p/>The documentation of the <i>ccaption</i> package describes a really
-rather awful work-around for this problem.
