Here is an example that I put on the wiki (because I kept forgetting how to do it and wanted one place to find it again, but I never can find it quickly there anyway, so now it's in the list archives at least): \setupcolors[state=start] \setupinteraction[state=start,color=middlered] \useURL [garden][http://contextgarden.net][][Context garden] \starttext The \from[garden] is useful. \stoptext I just tested it on the live context and it works fine with an active link in the pdf file. But it didn't work in the 2006.10.05 beta (the space in the "Context garden" caused problems). Maybe your example didn't have \setupinteraction[state=start] ? -Sanjoy `Never underestimate the evil of which men of power are capable.' --Bertrand Russell, _War Crimes in Vietnam_, chapter 1.
