I have got a problem with the heading on a page with
\chapter* and using fancyhdr. There is a minimal example below. The header of the first page of the introduction is "Contents" instead of "Introduction". If I replace "
\chapter*{Introduction}" by "\chapter{Introduction}" then it is displayed correctly, but the introduction becomes chapter 1, what is not intended. Hopefully someone can offer some help with that issue. Since I am close to a deadline a quick and dirty fix will be fine too.Best regards
Thomas
