first page footer instead of page number

[faunt]

Hi, I'm trying to get fancy footers and NO fancy headers on the first page
 in an article class without losing the fancy headers and footers I have 
on 
subsequent pages. It's driving me crazy.

I want to replace the page number '1' on the first page footer with a 
fancy footer (the same one as on subsequent pages) WITHOUT adding a fancy 
header to the first page.

I'm trying to re-work my preamble to do this and am failing.
Can't find the documentation that answers this. Help? A help document name 
would be great if it contains the answer.

thanks,jamie faunt

Hi Paul, thanks for the reply. I managed to get the footers I want on both 
pages (2-page doc). I want to keep the header I have on page 2 but get rid 
of it on page 1. And that's what I can't seem to do.

Maybe your suggestion would work if I went back to page number and no 
header on page 1 and added the footer with ERT on page 1. I'm not sure if 
it would replace the page number though. I'll try it.

thanks,
jamie

I'm not sure I exactly understand what you want to do, but I'll try and add 
something constructive.

Have you tried to include an ERT of \cfoot{Whatever you want on page 1} on 
the first page, then on the second page another ERT of \cfoot{\thepage} ?
Obviously this would require you to include a pagebreak between the two ERT's 
so that they appear as expected...but I think it may be a workaround to your 
problem.

Someone with more knowledge than me may be able to offer you a better 
solution...but just something to think about.

Lata,
Paul
