Hi, I'm wondering how I can make a footnote in hypertex using miktex. I
would also like to know how to make the increment the footnote symbol(not the
number) on a single page and then start over again on the next page at 1
symbol.

For example

text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text text* text texttext texttext text
text text text text text text text text text text** ____________________ *
footnote **footnote

Each page that had footnotes would start with only one * and increment for
each additional footnote. I would prefer to do this using hypertex. My goal
is to produce a document that easy to use online as well as to read once it
has been printed. Jeremy

\usepackage[perpage,symbol*]{footmisc}

which is lamport's definition of footnote markers, not the multiple-*
one (and is slightly modified not to explode if there are more than 10
per page).

however, i would be surprised if that lot was hyperref (or hyper, or
anything -- you don't say which package you're using) safe. do those
packages characteristically link footnotes? ho hum ... if they do,
i've got yet another thing to add to my long-delayed next version of
footmisc.

Well, If what I want to do isn't available in hyperref...how could I just
make a simple footnote with a symbol and link it? Thanks Jeremy
