Footnote inside of a table is not popping up in the right place.

[RMRubert]

So, if you put a footnote inside of a table, this one pops up at the start of the page. If the table is at the start of the article you might be lucky to see it, otherwise there is no chance. I have my own CSS applied but I think this problem happens any time.

When I will have doubts about an artist being one or another genre, I will make myself the question, *if I was the Radio Station DJ[^1] of the genre, will I play it next to the master song?* If they couldn't be played next to any form song, they would be exiled into the "other" tag.

[^1]: Test 1

|     Genre        | Songs |            Form Song             |
|:----------------:|:-----:|:--------------------------------:|
| alternative rock |  393  |                Muse - Resistance |
|     ambient[^2]  |  19   |          Mauro Picotto - Adiemus |
|      blues       |  11   |          Leonard Cohen - Suzanne |
|   classic rock   |  710  |  Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing |

I think I screwed up with the github markdown :/ Sorry about that

I can reproduce this. This is something related to HTML / JS / CSS - I don't think footnotes in table are correctly supported.

Thanks for spotting that.

Note that in my case, when copy pasting your RMD into a single file and render, I get the footnote to be closer to the table. But not below the footnote.

I edited. Here is advice on how to format: https://yihui.org/issue/#please-format-your-issue-correctly

So after looking around, I believe this is an issue within distill.pub directly: distillpub/template#105

I'll see if I can port a fix in our version, but usually it is best if this is fixed upstream

This should be fixed in the dev version of distill. Footnotes tooltip should correctly be placed now when inside tables
