Re: [NTG-context] % in URL

Again, many thanks, Wolfgang. The key is to use \from rather than \goto. As for using just % in the links, \useURL [Hoyrup2007bURL] [{http://www.akira.ruc.dk/~jensh/Publications/2005%7BR%7D1_Folkerts_vol-1.PDF }] [] [{http://www.akira.ruc.dk/\~{}jensh/Publications/2005\%7BR\%7D1 \_Folkerts\_vol-1.PDF}] works but looks odd, since TeXShop (my editor) puts everything from the the first “%” on in the URL field (the 2nd field) in red (indicating that it is commented out). Using “\%” in this field seems to work too. Very best, Alan On Apr 22, 2008, at 02;14,05 , Wolfgang Schuster wrote:

I am trying to typeset a URL that has numerous "%"s in it which I am replacing with "\%"s. The problem is that while the typeset URL works, the printed URL is showing the "\%"s rather than just the "%"s.

For example, \useURL [Hoyrup2007bURL] [{http://www.akira.ruc.dk/~jensh/Publications/2005\ %7BR{\percent}7D1_Folkerts_vol-1.PDF}] [] [{http://www.akira.ruc.dk/~jensh/Publications/2005\%7BR\ %7D1_Folkerts_vol-1.PDF}]

produces a link that works but reads as http://www.akira.ruc.dk/~jensh/Publications/2005\ %7BR{\percent}7D1_Folkerts_vol-1.PDF

I notice that "\&" behaves as it should in this context.

Any suggestions or pointers to a solution will be much appreciated.

You could write % just as % in your links.

\useURL [Hoyrup2007bURL] [http://www.akira.ruc.dk/~jensh/Publications/2005%7BR%7D1_Folkerts_vol-1.PDF ]

\starttext \from[Hoyrup2007bURL] \stoptext
