Multiple references to the same footnote
It is possible to refer to the same footnote more than once, in other words to generate several footnote markers, all with the same number, which link to the same footnote. To achieve this, named footnotes (named references) are used.

A footnote is named using the name attribute of the tag. Choose a name (such as "Perry"), and then at one of the footnote marker points (it makes sense to choose the first), enter the footnote like this: Blah, blah, blah.
 * Perry's Handbook, Sixth Edition, McGraw-Hill Co., 1984

Then you can create another identical marker linking to the same footnote from any other point in the text, by entering the following (note the final slash):



Quick multiple references
For multiple use of the same inline citation or footnote, you can use the named references feature, choosing a name to identify the inline citation, and typing. Thereafter, the same named reference may be reused any number of times by typing just.
