Subject: Placement of notes


Hi

I'm just investigating how best to handle notes in two scenarios for some humanities books I am working on, initially for html delivery, but also for print output at some point in the near future.

1. I have end of chapter notes distinct from footnotes, which need to be placed as follows:

----
chapter text...

Notes heading
1. End note text

Another section heading
Some more text
----

2. I have also got titles where the notes are at the back of the book, and contain some introductory text for each chapter:

----
Notes

Chapter 1
Introductory para
1. End note text

Chapter 2
Introductory para
1. End note text
----

I have a different @role on the <footnote>s to indicate where they will need to go, but I can see that assembling them in a specific place and with additional text is going to require some hefty customisation. Has anyone else had to deal with this kind of problem?

I have seen this thread from last year, but wondered if you might have some other useful pointers and tips, thanks:
