Tested the following...

\starttext

\useURL [myURL] [http://www.a.com] [] [wxyz]

1. \url[myURL] \blank

2. \goto{wherever}[url(myURL)] \blank
3. \goto{wherever}[{url(myURL)}] \blank

4. \goto{wherever}[url[myURL]] \blank
5. \goto{wherever}[{url[myURL]}]

\stoptext

It compiles, only 1. works though but it outputs a http://www.a.com hyperlink

instead of a wxyz hyperlink.

Output in attachement.

Best,

Alan

\starttext

\useURL [url] [http://www.a.com] [] [wxyz] % this does NOT compile

test \url[url] test \goto{wherever}[url(url)]

\stoptext
