37.0. "Page 1-1 folio not printing" by 38082::BOYACK () Fri Feb 27 1987 14:32

    I've just noticed that my files aren't printing the footer on the
    first page of the first chapter (after front_matter). Other chapters
    are ok. Has anyone seen this before?

37.1Preface loses page number tooATLAST::BOUKNIGHTEverything has an outlineSat Feb 28 1987 20:244
    yes, we noticed that the page number on the first PREFACE page
    consistently gets dropped.  Is this part of the same problem?

37.2<CONTENTS_FILE> is alleged perpetrator38082::BOYACKMon Mar 02 1987 13:169
    re: 37.1 -- This is definitely the same problem. If a PREFACE is
    included, its first page number is not printed; if no PREFACE, the
    first page number is omitted from the first chapter.
    
    Chased this "bug" around today, and found that it appears only if
    the FRONT_MATTER includes a <CONTENTS_FILE> tag. Omit the tag and
    the probelm goes away.

    This is the front half of the problem noted in the Release Notes
    (extra page when <index_file> is specified). I would like to know
    what doctype(s) are in question here, so I can double-check that
    we've fixed.

    Well... I only tried it on LYNX and its variants. Would you like
    me to try others?

37.5we will test hereCLOSET::ANKLAMWed Mar 04 1987 07:355
    
    no, we'll check on it here. I just wanted to see if there was some
    difference among doctypes, so needed to know which one.

    Indeed.
    
    I was just about to enter a note on the same subject.
    
    With the General Doctype, a <running_title>(title\THIS_PAGE) will
    not produce the title on THIS_PAGE if the page has a <CHAPTER> tag
    on it.
    
    
    HELP!!
