\footnote{test}and a lot of other examples. Lyx shows every time an error

If you are trying to put a footnote in the caption of a float, you can do so as
follows:

a) In the caption, insert (in ERT) \footnotemark[n] where n is the number of the
footnote.

b) In the body of the document (outside the float), insert (in ERT)
\footnotetext[n]{the text of the footnote}, using of course the same number n.
