I'm working on an epub trying to link footnotes at the end of a chapter to the place in the chapter where the footnote is mentioned.

Here is what a working link looks like:

actual footnote <a href="#chapt1fn2" id="chapt1fn2x">[2]</a>

footnote in paragraph <a href="#chapt1fn2x">[2]</a>

this works fine , clicking one takes you to the anchored part and clicking the anchored part takes you to the footnote.

I did 4 of these but when I tried to do the fifth the footnote will only link to the anchor AND NOT back to the footnote.

actual footnote <a href="#chapt1fn26" id="chapt1fn26x">[26]</a>

footnote in paragraph <a href="#chapt1fn26x">[26]</a>

I cannot figure out why the first 4 work and everyone after that does not.

Anyone?
