LaTeX: Positioning Treaky Footnotes

Footnotes to Paragraph/Section Titles

When you put foonotes in paragraph titles or section titles, you will get complaints from LaTeX. The following fixes this and puts no footnotes in the table of contents.

\paragraph[foo-title]{foo-title \protect\footnote{bar-footnote}}
\section[foo-title]{foo-title \protect\footnote{bar-footnote}}

Footnotes to Captions

\caption[bar-title]{bar-title \footnotemark}
\end{figure}
\footnotetext{Here goes your foot note text}
