I know this isn't the place to report bugs, but I don't have the
patience right now to fill in Adobe's long-winded bug report form. Maybe
this will help someone who's banging their head trying to figure out
what's going on with their running headers.
Take a document with two stories. Story A, on pp 1-5, and story B on pp.
6-10. You create a text variable (running head based on character style)
and apply the appropriate character style to a few words in the chapter
title of story A. Likewise, you apply this char style to a few words in
the chapter title of story B.
Now, imagine that story B ends with a very long footnote. So the last
page of story B only has continued footnote text and no main body text.
In such a case, what I'm getting is that the running head for that last
page in story B shows the text appropriate to Story A.
Weird, huh?
I have a hunch that the same bug would happen if the last page of story
B contained only the continuation of a table, but I haven't checked.
