How do I get table footmarks to display in the bottom of the page instead of at the end of the table

I have a bunch of small tables 3-6 rows each and I have a couple of footnotes that apply to multiple cells in multiple tables across several pages. I would like each footnote to appear once per page and just reuse the number in the cells as appropriate. However, FM automatically assigns a footnote in a table cell to be a table footer and places the footnote after the table. Any suggestions as to how I can do this?

Don' use the table footnotes. You have to fake it using a cross-reference (appropriately formatted to look like a footnote) to an actual footnote. Use the <$paranumonly> building block in your pseudo-footnote x-ref format.
