When LyX (or TeXshop) typesets the file using pdflatex, I get the following error.

You meant to type ## instead of #, right?
Or maybe a } was forgotten somewhere earlier, and things
are all screwed up? I'm going to assume that you meant ##.
I can get around this by deleting the hash (in which case it doesn't appear in the PDF output). I also tried using the escape sequence for the character as recorded in the LaTeX symbol list (\#), which avoids the error, but appears as "\#" in the output. Two hashes in a row also avoids the error, but in the PDF I get two hashes, which I don't want either.
Is there any way to put a single hash in a properly typeset URL, using LyX?
