Thanks, Hans, but i still cannot get this to work. Here is a simple file that conveys the problem (working link, but wrong color).

In my preface, I have

\setupinteraction[state=start,color=blue,style=rm]

add contrastcolor=blue

...

When I compile the file I get the proper heading and the cross- reference works as it should. What is odd is that this reference is not in blue. All my other kinds of cross-references look and behave as they should.

same page refs get contrastcolor

Thanks, Hans. That is good to know. The cross-reference however is still in the wrong color. Is it a problem just on my box? Alan On Feb 15, 2008, at 08;07,27 , Hans Hagen wrote:

What do you want is not supported but you define your own command with a colored pagenumber.

\setupcolors[state=start]

\setupinteraction[state=start,contrastcolor=blue,color=blue,style=rm]

\definereferenceformat [givepage] [command=\at, left={\color[blue]}]

hm, this left=comecolor is kind of tricky ... efectively you can get \color[blue]123 == \color[blue]{1}

\definehead[LevelBHead][subject] \setupsectionblock[LevelBHead][number=no,page=right] \setuphead[LevelBHead][style={\tf\rm},interaction=yes]

\starttext \dorecurse{2}{\input knuth\par}\reference[Reference]{} \dorecurse{3}{\input knuth\par}

\LevelBHead{B{-}Header\hfill\givepage[Reference]} \dorecurse{2}{\input knuth\par} \stoptext

Wolfgang,

Many thanks for this. It does the job perfectly. I supplemented your suggestion (following your lead) with

\definereferenceformat [givenote] [command=\in, left={\color[blue]}]

which gives me references formatted exactly as I need.

you should better use, as Hans told in his mail the simple color command could cause a unwanted result. \definereferenceformat [givenote] [command=\in, left={\startcolor[blue]}, right=\stopcolor] Wolfgang
