Wolfgang, I found a spurious ] in the setuphead for the frontpart. Somehow it didn't cause a compile error but was treated as text that I didn't notice at first. Because I want the first pages of regular chapters to look different than those for the contents, introduction and index, I created a sectionblockenvironment and a setuphead for the regular chapters. Now to figure out how to keep page numbering from starting until the introduction without putting special code in that chapter.

Thanks, this is very helpful. I do have a couple of questions, though.
Should I insert a section for the body of the text something like this?
\startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart]
\setuphead[chapter][...]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\completecontent causes two blank (except for header) to be produced before the table of contents but \placecontent doesn't. It doesn't seem to me
You can do this but you don't have to, general settings for the headers in all blocks can be done outside of the sectionblock environment and only certain setups should be done in the block. that
the extra pages should be created. Could I have done something that caused this?
Who knows, i can't see what you did in your document from here. \completecontents insert a header before the TOC while the \placecontent produce only the TOC without a header.
