Hi Alan, wrapping the URL (or the footnote that contains it, it will crash inside the footnote) with \startasciimode...\stopasciimode works too: \setupinteraction[state=start] \unexpanded\def\mypersonalurl#1{% \bgroup\tt\goto{\hyphenatedurl{#1}}[url(#1)]\egroup} \starttext \startasciimode \footnote{\mypersonalurl{http://a.b?hpw%20h#pw}} \stopasciimode \stoptext Thomas, my apologies, because I have just remembered this. (I use ConTeXt mainly with XML input sources.)
