Changing the formatting of footnotes

The appearance of footnotes in the HTML output can be customized by redefining several macros:

The macro \htmlfootnotemark{n} typesets the mark that is placed in the text as a hyperlink to the footnote text. See the file siteinit.hlx for the default definition.

The environment thefootnotes generates the HTML node with the footnote text. Every footnote is formatted with the macro \htmlfootnoteitem{n}{text}. The default definitions are

   \newenvironment{thefootnotes}%
      {\chapter{Footnotes}
       \begin{description}}%
      {\end{description}}
   \newcommand{\htmlfootnoteitem}[2]%
      {\label{footnote-#1}\item[(#1)]#2}
