Bob,
I've viewed this chunk with Firefox 10, Google Chrome 17 and SeaMonkey 2.7 - they all show the first footnote the same way as my screenshots. Internet Explorer 8 actually shows the left-bracket, then *breaks* the rest of the footnote number onto the next line! (number and right-bracket). Only IE6 shows the first footnote number correctly.

Here is the part of the HTML output:

... earth occur in Australia.<sup>[<a id="d0e490" href="#ftn.d0e490" class="footnote">1</a>]</sup> More ...

This is exactly the same output for the next footnote - it seems to be a browser problem. Interesting...

Hi Dave,
Can you show what the generated HTML code looks like?
Does this problem show up in other browsers?

    *Subject:* [docbook-apps] Superscript footnote numbers in XHTML
    not formatting correctly

    I am producing XHTML 1.1 files with DB5 1.76.1ns and Saxon 6.5.5 -
    regarding superscript footnote numbers in body text, the first
    footnote is not correctly sized to superscript size - the footnote
    number and the closing right square bracket are the same size as
    the body text (whereas the opening square bracket is correctly
    sized). The second footnote number in the same paragraph is sized
    properly. See the attached screenshots.
    I have made sure my customisation layer and CSS file is not
    interfering. I'm using the markup:
    <footnote><para>text...</para></footnote>.
