Two HTML-style tags are used to define and show footnotes: <ref> and <reference />
<ref>
- Single use footnotes are defined by enclosing content within <ref>...</ref>
- Example: <ref>Rules of Usage. Strunk, William, Jr. 1918. Elements of Style</ref> equals: [1]
- A footnote used multiple times may be defined with a name
- Example: <ref name="CMOS">Chicago Manual of Style, 16th Edition</ref>
- The named footnote may be invoked later
- Exmple: <ref name="CMOS" />
<references />
- To display the reference list, after all of the <ref>...</ref> tags, include <references />
