empty page - how?

empty page - how?

[Ciro Soto]

Hi All,

I want each chapter to start on an odd number page, and  the preceding
page to be totally empty (no header,
no footer).

Before the \chapter command, I tried:

\page[odd,blank] ... didn't work. I get the header and footer
\page[odd,empty] ... didn't work. I get an extra page (empty)
\page[odd,makeup] ... didn't work. I get the same as in the first case

what is the combination I need to use?

thank you
Ciro

Please reply to the list so that others might also help...

The following example works for me:

\definepagebreak
   [mychapterpagebreak]
   [yes,header,footer,right]

\setuphead
   [chapter]
   [page=mychapterpagebreak]

\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location={header,margin}]
\setupheadertexts[{My special headertext}]
\setupfootertexts[This is a text in the footer]

\starttext
   \chapter{testA} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte }
   \chapter{testB} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte }
   \chapter{testC} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte }
\stoptext

You should never have to resort to that.
