Hi Pratik and others:When talking about positioning of footnotes in books with code, such as O'Reillys, Pratik wrote:
The positioning of the footnotes and other elements in the text should be
controlled by your DAISY player and not through your source file. That's a personal preference.
And I respond:to be clear, here, the presentation of the footnotes should be controled by the DAISY reading system (and the end-user's preferences that the reading system offers), but the positioning of those footnotes and their markup is certainly controled through the source file. The bottom line is that the reading system can only present to the end-user based on the source-file it's given. So, if the source-file doesn't have footnote "hooks" that are properly marked up, the player isn't going to have very much to work with when presenting the content to the reader.
