Header: don't make it be every page the same

I'm writing an essay and in the header there has to be the title of the chapter. As I have to write several chapters I want to make the header not be the same at every page.

Is this possible ?

Please read the sticky thread on page numbering.

010jonathan: I haven't been able to try it (getting ready for a trip), but this thread

looks very promising. Looks like (FAR) more work than just typing your header individually, but then most of the styling stuff is.

Try it and see; if it works, or doesn't, write back!

Just insert the field "chapter name" into the header and you're set. You may want to create a style for the first page of a chapter and turn off the header on it. Would be ugly to have the title twice on the same page.
