Try This..

(element (TITLE FOO)
 ( let* (
  ( theTxt (data (current-node )))
   (footnl ($sel-chldrn$ current-node "footnote"))    ;; use
(process-node-list footnl)
);eoletgroup
 (make sequence
  (literal theTxt)
 );eomseq
 );eolet
)

(define ($sel-chldrn$ %this-node% %this-gi%)
 (select-elements (children (%this-node%)) (normalize %this-gi%))
)
