Footnotes in figure and table titles.


Hi there,

If I include footnotes in the title of a figure the footnote number gets
included in the table of contents.

i.e.:

    <para>
	<figure id="fig2.4">
	    <title> The pen stand<footnoteref linkend="ch2note103"> </title>
	    <mediaobject> <imageobject> <imagedata align="center"
		scale="65" fileref="chapter2/the_pen_stand"> </imageobject>
	    </mediaobject>
	</figure>
    </para>

The table of contents reads:

    List of Figures
    2-1. Cartesian frame of reference
    2-2. The origin is numerically zero in every direction
    2-3. Polar Cartesian
    2-4. The pen stand[1]
    2-5. An example curved geometry

I think that it's a bug in the style sheets.  The footnote number should
only be inserted in the actual body of the text, and suppressed in the
table of contents.

What do you think?
Joe
