First post on this list... I have been using LaTeX for several large projects during the last 10 years and just recently tried to switch to ConTeXt due to the claim of easier handling of custom page layout. So far it is an enjoyable experience... I would need to customize my page headers with a custom table (like LaTeX's tabular environment) instead of just changing the text in the left and right corners. From the quick browsing I have been doing of documentation and articles at contextgarden this feature called "layers" might be what I am looking for. But before trying to grasp this feature I would like to ask any experienced ConTeXt user for the recommended approach to achieve what I am trying to do... So, to conclude: "How do I customize my page header to contain a table instead of the predefined style?" Thanks, Stefan Larsson

can you give us a example of the header do you want to get, tables are not best solution and they will couse troubles in a few cases. We could try to find a better solution if possible. Greetings Wolfgang
