Page Layout ⇒ titlepage environment

[waxranger]

Dear readers

I have to do a "special" layout of the titlepage. Therefore I use the titlepage environment. Now, I would like to use the \thanks command just like you can use it with the \author command. I list the names of contributors within a tabular environment and use \thanks within tabular. The superscripted numbers get typeset but the actual footnote does not. I've tried both \thanks and \footnote with the same result. Can somebody explain this behavior? Is this because of the tabular environment?

I use the bookclass for this

Regards
Fab

You need to use \footnotemark and \footnotetext. See:

I can see! Thanks for the heads up!

\footnotemark and \footnotetext works fine
