HtLaTeX Table Footnote and Makesavenoteenv

Question

The following minimum working sample throws an error

! LaTeX Error: \begin{table} on input line 10 ended by \end{document}.

While pdflatex compiles without any error.

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{footnote}

\makesavenoteenv{tabular}
\makesavenoteenv{table}

\begin{document}

\begin{table}[h]
  \caption{Table Caption Here.}
  \label{tab:lbl}
  \begin{tabular}{ccccccccccccc}  \hline
  &&Data3 \footnote{Data3 Footnote.}        & Data4       &&Data3& Data4       &&Data3& Data4       &&Data3& Data4       \\ \hline
  \end{tabular}
\end{table}

\end{document}

Any Help?

Welcome to TeX.SX! What I see is that the footnote package (old and unmaintained) is not compatible with TeX4ht. — egreg, Feb 16 '16 at 10:21

The footnote package seems to be incompatible with tex4ht. Because tex4ht supports footnotes in tables by default, we don't really need services of this package, in particular patching environments with \makesavenoteenv. It insert some code at the beginning and end of the patched environment and it clashes somehow with tex4ht code.

Simple fix is to disable the inserted code. Save the following code as footnote.4ht:

\def\savenotes{}
\def\spewnotes{}

Your sample should compile correctly now:

make4ht filename "fn-in"

Thanks @michal.h21.The question can be closed. – Senthil Oct 08 '19 at 16:49 — Senthil, Oct 08 '19 at 16:49
