In the following code, I would like to use \StrGobbleLeft{\ref*{#1}}{2} so as to use n instead #n where the last formatting is used to number special footnotes for links.

\StrGobbleLeft{\ref*{#1}}{2} doesn't work. Is there a way to achieve what I want to do ?

What I want concretly...

I want to use footnote whiche have numbering displaying using #n where n is one usual counter for footnotes and the hash symbol # is used to indicate very special footnotes. I use this for links in text, instead of displaying http://www.google.fr/, in the text my macro newUrl prints something like http://link-n/#n where n is a counter for new URLS, and #n is one footonote, the content of this footnote is the complete link.

I have one secund macro oldUrl usefull to reuse one link already indicated without creating one new footnote. I've trouble with this secund macro where I want to use \ref*{...} so as to have the text of the footnote number attached to one label in the text of one footnote associated to one new URL.

My code

  • Using # in this context breaks many mechanisms of hyperref. Please, state in a clearer way the results you wish to obtain, as the example doesn't compile. – egreg Nov 17 '11 at 11:59
  • Indeed, the first compilation insults me but the secund one works fine... The problem doesn't seem to come from the use of the hash symbol #. I don't know why the first compilation complains... – projetmbc Nov 17 '11 at 14:31
  • It compiles the second time, but it's not clear what you want. – egreg Nov 17 '11 at 15:17
  • I've tried to be clearer... I try my best bt my english is a poor one. – projetmbc Nov 17 '11 at 15:54

Not really understood what you exactly want! I hope this code helps:

\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage[svgnames]{xcolor}
\usepackage{manyfoot}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{varioref}

\makeatletter
\newcommand\breakabletexttt{%

        \ttfamily
        \breakabletexttt@ii#1\breakabletexttt@ii
    \endgroup
}

\newcommand\breakabletexttt@ii[1]{%
    \unless\ifx\breakabletexttt@ii#1%
        #1\hspace{0pt plus 0.1pt minus 0.1pt}\expandafter\breakabletexttt@ii
    \fi
}

\newcommand\textbftt[1]{\textbf{\texttt{#1}}}
\newcommand\breakttbf[1]{\textbf{\breakabletexttt{#1}}}
\hypersetup{urlcolor=blue}
\definecolor{urlColor}{named}{DarkRed}

\newcommand\urlText[2][\breakttbf]{\textcolor{urlColor}{#1{#2}}}

\newfootnote{Url}

\newcount\cnt@footurl
\newcommand\footnoteUrl{%
    \advance\cnt@footurl\@ne
    \Footnotemark{\urlText[\emph]{\#\number\cnt@footurl}}\FootnotetextUrl{}%
}

\newcount\cnt@url
\newcommand\newUrl[2][]{%
    \advance\cnt@url\@ne
    \expandafter\edef\csname url@@#1\endcsname{http://link-\number\cnt@url}%
    \expandafter\expandafter\expandafter\urlText\expandafter\expandafter\expandafter{\csname url@@#1\endcsname/}%
    \footnoteUrl{\,\ifx\@empty#1\@empty\else\label{#1}\fi{} \url{#2}}%
