Re: [NTG-context] reference containing parentheses causes trouble

This is why it is always a good idea to preface references with a (personal) identifier. However, perhaps Hans, Wolfgang, or someone else can explain the use of colons (:) and double colons (::) in references and in other tags in general (they have to do with namespaces, instances, etc.).

Actually in the context of references, not only parentheses as Wolfgang pointed out, but also some words are reserved, such as nextpage and previous page:

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\starttext

\goto{Second page}[page(2)]

\goto{Go to next page}[nextpage]

\page

\goto{ConTeXt garden}[url(http://wiki.contextgarden.net)]

\goto{Go to previous page}[previouspage]

\stoptext

Best regards: OK

Dear List,

Warning: The following may be a bug or feature or just my misunderstanding! It seems that parentheses cause trouble in references. Braces are used for the argument of reference actions.

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\starttext

\goto{Second page}[page(2)]

\page

\goto{ConTeXt garden}[url(http://wiki.contextgarden.net)]

\stoptext

Wolfgang

I see. Thanks for clearifying.
