Suppressing blank pages and double-sided printing - header and footer problem

[docbook@web.de]

Hi,

I have a simular problem as described in
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/200707/msg00095.html. I
have a document, which should be printed double sided (<xsl:param
name="double.sided">1</xsl:param>). I want also suppress the blank pages,
which are generated, if a new chapter isn't starting on the odd side.
Therefore, I use the parameter (<xsl:param name="force.blank.pages"
select="0"/>). But the result is not as expected: In some special cases the
header and footer are on the odd side as configured on the even side and
vice versa, e.g., the page numbers aren't outside but inside. This behaviour
begins with the first chapter of the book, if the first chapter starts on an
even side. 

I'm using FOP 2.3 and DocBook 5.0. Any idea, what should be adepted?

Thanks and best regards,
        Felix
