Dear All,

I'm trying to run one of the examples in the ConTeXt wiki page https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Titles

Here's the code:

\setuppapersize[A5]

\section[sec:old]{Old Section}

This is an old-style \ConTeXt\ section.

\startsection
  [
    title={New Section}
    reference=sec:new,
  ]
This is a new-style section.
\stopsection

However, my compiled pdf looks nothing like the example on the wiki. What am I doing wrong? Is there anything wrong with my ConTeXt settings?

1. You need \starttext at the begin and \stoptext at the end of your document.

2. You forgot a comma after the title entry.

\starttext

\section[sec:old]{Old Section}

This is an old-style \ConTeXt\ section.

\startsection
  [title={New Section},
   reference=sec:new]

This is a new-style section.

\stopsection

\stoptext

Wolfgang
