Hello.

I'm using XeLaTeX with the longtable package, version 4.11. The documentation says that longtable takes special precautions, so that footnotes may also be used in 'p' columns. I'm having problems, though, with this scenario. While the footnote number in the table has the correct number, the footnote number in the footnote text at the bottom of the page uses a zero.

A small sample that causes this is below.

What am I doing wrong?

The log file has this for the version of XeTeX:

This is XeTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.2-0.9997.4 (Web2C 2010) (format=xelatex 2010.11.15)

I'm running on Windows XP, although it also happens on a Mac OS X Snow Leopard.

Thanks,

--Andy
