Thank you SO MUCH for posting, Karen! 🎉🎉🎉🔥🔥🔥 I hope everyone will look at your example -- it's excellent! Love your (correct!) use of <article> and <footer> as well. Great stuff!

And putting square brackets around the footnotes so that they stand out more and make a bigger click target, good for accessibility.

Excellent suggestion, thanks!

I have a LOT of experience with footnotes (web development at a University).

🎉🎉🎉🔥🔥🔥 Nicely done! These look good. Not sure that "Buy Me a Coffee" needs a <cite> around it, as it's just a website. We are not quoting them in some way. But otherwise, awesome! Thanks for sharing!

Caffeine formula got <sub> tags for each element. I gave the two footnotes <sup> tags and attempted to link them with bidirectional linking in the <footer> tag. For the superscript of the 10th, I placed the "th" in a span and styled it in CSS with vertical-align: super & px size of 11.

Nicely done, Vanessa! 🎉🎉🎉🔥🔥🔥 You've done a great job with the sups and subs in the document. I think for 10th, you might consider <sup> because that's often how it's written. However, the CSS method is probably OK too. Don't forget to drop in <p> elements around paragraphs -- they are important too, although we've not discussed them here. Great work!

🎉🎉🎉🔥🔥🔥 Nicely done, Servane! Your sups and subs look great. Have a look at Karen Dickenson's pen below for a great example of markup for the footnotes. Excellent work!

Hopefully I caught all the <sub> and <sup> possibilities here! For the footnotes, I created anchors. If I am reading something and the footnotes in the text do not take me directly to the note, I get a little irritated, so I thought I would include that here.

🎉🎉🎉🔥🔥🔥 Nicely done once again, Jade! Consider using an ordered list for the footnotes instead of paragraphs (see my comments to William below). But that's a minor picky thing - everything else looks great. Thanks for sharing!

Ah, that totally makes sense, thank you for the feedback!

🎉🎉🎉🔥🔥🔥 Great job once again, William! Your code looks fantastic. I agree with Karen (below) that your footnotes might be better marked up in an ordered list rather than paragraphs. It's a list of notes that are in the order they appeared in the document... thus <ol> rather than <p>. But this is minor -- from a usability perspective, I think you have done us a great service by linking the reference to the note, which I would consider very important. Thanks for sharing again!
