-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Idris, [First, sorry if you get this twice. I first mailed it from my wrong account] Not exactly sure what you are after, do you want to "print" the url out, or make an active link that clicking on will take you to. If you want to print the url, then \setupcolors [state=start] \setupinteraction [state=start,color=blue] % To use a url, \useURL [mypage] << the cite you will use [http://www.webpage.edu] << the actual web address [] << if you were linking to a file [\tex{My Web page}] << What you want the link to print in the document \starttext This is an example of link usage in \ConTeXt. If the link works, you should see that My Web Page is repeated here \from[mypage] and is highlighted in blue and that the link works. An alternative would be to list the link as a url as in here, \url[mypage]. However, using the url command gets a printing of the url, e.g,. http://www.webpage.edu. \stoptext Hope that helps.

Hi Idris,
The following outputs the url but I don't get a hyperlink:
I get a 'half working' hyperlink. Try to replace '\url' by '\from'.

\from[Adobe].
Aha, is that the right way to do it? I actually get fully working hyperlinks with \url (as far as I can tell), but perhaps \from is the right macro.

Hi,
\from[Adobe].

I'd say yes, but my knowledge is only based on practice and not the source/documentation. (Too lazy to look at it right now.)
I actually get fully working hyperlinks with \url (as far as I can tell), but perhaps \from is the right macro. Sorry about confusion,
I tried Idris' example and found out that it lead to the wrong destination, and the printed hyperlink looked fine (but the real one wasn't). Then I tried \from instead of \url and that gave me the correct behaviour. Pat -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

I think that there is some magic in acroread 7. it parses the text and if it sees a http://someth.ing it will make that active. When looking at the pdf file from the code below, there is only one real annotation object (well, split in 14 sub-objects) coming from the \from-statement. The url generated by the \url command is not correct. -------------------------------------------------- \pdfcompresslevel=0 \setuppagenumbering[location=] \useURL [Adobe] [http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/font/5091.Design_MM_Fonts.pdf] \setupinteraction[state=start] \startbuffer \url[Adobe] \from[Adobe] \stopbuffer \starttext \typebuffer \getbuffer \stoptext -------------------------------------------------- Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net
