I want to place a footnote marker as a superscript at the end of a
section head using LaTeX and "report" style.  I have tried the following
without success:

These produce a footnotemark on a line by itself:

\section{Section Header Here}\footnotemark	
\section{Section Header Here}\footnotemark%

These produce a diagnostic that there is a spurious '}':


\section{Section Header Here\footnotemark}
\section{Section Header Here\footnotemark}%
\section{Section Header Here\footnotemark\}
\section{Section Header Here\footnotemark\}%

What am I missing?
