Re: section title as running header

A package I use is Javier Bezos' "titlesec".

In there is a command called "\sectiontitle" which reproduces the argument for "\section{}".

There's a fair bit to set up, but it does the trick for me! :)

Subject: [MiKTeX] section title as running header

Hi,

I realize that this is not the appropriate forum to ask this question. I apologize for posting this question.  I have already posted it on comp.text.tex but have received no response.

I am writing a book where the running headers of even pages are chapter titles and running head of odd pages are section titles. The last section of each chapter is a section called "Problems". I would like this section to have no section number, appear in the TOC without section number and be justified under the title of other sections (not under the number of other sections) and appear in the heading of odd pages as "Problems" with no section number. What I have been doing is the following. At the end of Chapter 1 I have added:

\newpage
\def\mr{\large{\it Problems}}
\let\rightmark\mr
\section*{Problems}
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{Problems}%

This causes:
1- "Problems" to appear in the TOC without section number but left justified under other sections that start with section number 2-When Chapter 2 starts, on odd pages I do not have section number, rather "Problems" appears for the entire book as the header on odd pages.

How can I solve these two problems? How cabn I reset the running header to the section number again at the beginning of Chapter 2 and have "Problems" correctly justified in TOCs.

Thanks
