Again, many thanks, Wolfgang. The key is to use \from rather than \goto. As for using just % in the links,
\useURL [Hoyrup2007bURL] [{http://www.akira.ruc.dk/~jensh/Publications/2005%7BR%7D1_Folkerts_vol-1.PDF }] [] [{http://www.akira.ruc.dk/\~{}jensh/Publications/2005\%7BR\%7D1 \_Folkerts\_vol-1.PDF}] works but looks odd, since TeXShop (my editor) puts everything from the the first “%” on in the URL field (the 2nd field) in red (indicating that it is commented out). Using “\%” in this field seems to work too.
