But there's no "count" attribute on that xsl:number instruction to tell it 
to number footnotes and citations together. Accordingly, by default it's 
only counting elements of the same type as the context node. :-)

In XSLT 2.0 the select="." should let to skip the for-each (as you had it 
before) but you still need count="footnote|citation[not(ancestor::footnote)]".

Cheers,
Wendell
