I have been trying Herbert Voss's solution for widow and orphan control
(http://www.educat.hu-berlin.de/~voss/lyx/layouts/widows.html). I tried the
first solution, and I tried the second as an addition to the first, which is
what I understood I was supposed to do if the first didn't work.

The first solution doesn't seem to have any effect by itself-- I still get one
line hanging over, and sometimes the line is just two words long! The second
generates an error-- something wrong with the first line. 

I've made double sure that I don't have typos, though I don't deny there might
be an error in there that I missed. 

Has anybody tried these solutions with success? Is there some other command or
package on which these solutions depend, which is not mentioned on the webpage?
Part of the problem is that since I don't quite understand how those examples
are supposed to work, I can't tweak it. 

Suggestions anyone?
