you're wright. the problem is that lyx puts the footnote outside
the item-command. it's a question to one of the developers if
it's possible that lyx puts footnote, which is behind a label
inside the item:
\item{my Item\footnote{my footnote}]
this is with lyx:
\item{my Item]\footnote{my footnote}
and latex puts a space between item and footnotemark.
look at the attachment, there is the solution for footnotemark
and footnotetext. it's the same situation as in tables.

This is an example.

This footnote is inserted just after the

I don't like the space after the tag.

I love LyX.

This footnote shows its label, but doesn't show herself at the bottom.
There is also another problem: how to make footnotes longer than one line
(words are connected with protected spaces)?
\latex latex
\backslash
footnotetext{This\SpecialChar ~
footnote\SpecialChar ~
is\SpecialChar ~
inserted\SpecialChar ~
as\SpecialChar ~
ERT and this footnote is much more
than one line when i write some nonsense so that this is nonsense}
\newline

item[my Item
\backslash
footnote{myfootnote}]
\latex default
