Gadgets are not really part of public, documented, API. Therefore, I cannot recommend you to write a Gadget.

Now that Alain Pierrot had this idea (thanks Alain), I'm sure what's above is the best XXE can do for you. Well, almost the best: you can display the rank of the footnote within the para. For that, use XPath extension function: number index-of-node(node-set1, node-set2) See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/commands/xpathextfunc.html (XPath extension functions may be used anywhere you can use XPath: in macros, in CSS generated content, etc...)
