It may be that \footnote needs to be \protected in this context, in which case it is a LyX bug. So you might try putting "\protect" in ERT immediately before the footnote, and see if that helps. If not, then it's a LaTeX issue. rh -- ================================================================== Richard G Heck, Jr Professor of Philosophy Brown University http://frege.brown.edu/heck/ ================================================================== Get my public key from http://sks.keyserver.penguin.de Hash: 0x1DE91F1E66FFBDEC Learn how to sign your email using Thunderbird and GnuPG at: http://dudu.dyn.2-h.org/nist/gpg-enigmail-howto
