I see. I got this example from the Context reference manual dated June 1st, 2011 on page 87. I thought
it would be up to date and didn't see any hints for the mkii<->mkiv problem.

Thank you, that is exactly what I was looking for (different numberconversions for  front- and bodypart).
My first guess was that the "frontpart" goes in the second set of brackets (the empty ones). But no, its in the first with
frontpart:pagenumber.
Very confusing sometimes :S

Thank you for your help!
