<h3>Not resetting footnote numbers per chapter</h3>
<p/>Some classes (for example, <i>book</i> and <i>report</i>) set up a
different set of footnotes per chapter, by resetting the footnote
number at the start of the chapter.  This is essentially the same
action as that of 
<a href="FAQ-running-nos.html">equation, figure and table numbers</a>,
except that footnote numbers don&rsquo;t get &ldquo;decorated&rdquo; with the chapter
number, as happens with those other numbers.
<p/>The solution is the same: use the <i>chngcntr</i> package; since the
numbers aren&rsquo;t &ldquo;decorated&rdquo; you can use the <code>\</code><code>counterwithout*</code>
variant; the code:
<blockquote>
<pre>
\counterwithout*{footnote}{chapter}
</pre>
</blockquote><p>
is all you need
