I'm currently writing my MA thesis. I'd like to have an empty page after my title page but without the header and footer appearing... I've tried moving away the commands that make the header and footer but to no avail... What should I do ? Here's a sample of my code :
I don't think the headers and footers are your problem. There isn't supposed to be a blank page to begin with. What are you trying to achieve in the loong run? Do you want to print on both sides of the paper?

I just want a blank page without header and footer after my title page. And then Contents, Figures and the rest. No I don't want to print on both sides of the paper.
