titlePg (Different First Page Headers and Footers)

This element specifies whether the parent section in this document shall have a different header and footer for its first page.

If the val attribute is set to true, then the parent section in the document shall use a first page header for the first page in the section. If the val attribute is set to false, then the first page in the parent section shall use the odd page header.

This setting does not affect the presence of even and odd page header on all sections, which is specified using the evenAndOddHeaders element (§2.10.1).

If this element is set to false and a first page header is specified , then it shall be ignored and only the odd page header shall be displayed. Conversely, if this element is set to true and the first page header type is omitted for the given section, then a blank header shall be created as needed (another header type shall not be used in its place).

If this element is omitted, then its value shall be assumed to be false.

[Example: Consider a section which shall have a different first page header. This requirement is specified using the following WordprocessingML:

<w:sectPr>
…
<w:titlePg />
…
</w:sectPr>

Since the titlePg property is present (and its default attribute value is true), this document will now have a different header and footer for its first page. end example]

Attributes

Description

val (On/Off Value)

Specifies a binary value for the property defined by the parent XML element.

A value of on, 1, or true specifies that the property shall be explicitly applied. This is the default value for this attribute, and is implied when the parent element is present, but this attribute is omitted.

A value of off, 0, or false specifies that the property shall be explicitly turned off.

[Example: For example, consider the following on/off property:

<w:… w:val="off"/>

The val attribute explicitly declares that the property is turned off. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_OnOff simple type (§2.18.67).
