hi, If I try to use link abbrevations inside tables, there are some issues when exporting to latex. Say for example, if we consider the following eg :
------------8<---------------------------------8<-------------------- #+TITLE: Simple refs stuff #+AUTHOR: Yuva #+EMAIL: #+DATE: #+DESCRIPTION: #+KEYWORDS: #+LANGUAGE: en #+OPTIONS: H:3 num:t toc:t \n:nil @:t ::t |:t ^:t -:t f:t *:t <:t #+OPTIONS: TeX:t LaTeX:nil skip:t d:nil todo:t pri:nil tags:not-in-toc #+INFOJS_OPT: view:nil toc:nil ltoc:t mouse:underline buttons:0 path:http://orgmode.org/org-info.js #+EXPORT_SELECT_TAGS: export #+EXPORT_EXCLUDE_TAGS: noexport #+LINK_UP: #+LINK_HOME: * Bug-References #+CAPTION: References #+LABEL: tbl:references #+LINK: bugzilla http://10.1.2.9/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id= #+LINK: ads http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-abs_connect?author=%s&db_key=AST | bug | link | |------+--------------| | 129 | [[bugzilla:129]] | | test | [[ads:test]] | ------------8<---------------------------------8<-------------------- If the link contains this ampersand '&' character, which has special meaning inside latex table, org mode generates incompatible .tex file. With the latest org-mode {from git sources}, I have the following generated output : ------------8<---------------------------------8<-------------------- % Created 2009-06-15 Mon 16:51 \documentclass[11pt]{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage{longtable} \usepackage{hyperref} \title{Simple refs stuff} \author{Yuva} \date{15 June 2009} \begin{document} \setcounter{tocdepth}{3} \tableofcontents \vspace*{1cm} \section{Bug-References} \label{sec-1} \begin{table}[htb] \caption{\label{tbl:references}References} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{ll} bug & link \\ \hline 129 & \href{http://10.1.2.9/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129}{http://10.1.2.9/bugzilla/show\_bug.cgi?id=129} \\ test & \href{http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-abs_connect?author=test&db_key=AST}{http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-abs\_connect?author=test\&db\_key=AST} \\ \end{tabular} \end{center} \end{table} \end{document} ------------8<---------------------------------8<-------------------- 'pdflatex' simply fails to produce a pdf because '&' has creeped in due to '#+LINK: ads' expansion. This simple problem can be solved by treating '&' as special character, and replace it with '\&'. For above example, just replace 'test&db' with 'test\&db' IN-THE-FIRST-ARG-OF \href. Well, I am new to elisp, and I am still figuring out how to counter this issue. [Oh! what a lame excuse!].
