I can't help, but I did have a question and comment.

(1) Are you using the mla package?  I just came across this last
night, and wanted details on how to use it.

(2) MLA style tells you *not* to use footnotes. Of course, you
can't tell your professor this.  But according to the Chicago
Style Manual, using footnotes for references are a publisher's
nightmare. They also break up the flow of text.

Endnotes (or better yet, parenthetical references) are the
preferred method for citations.  I myself am trying to figure out
how to do this.
