Making bibliography references interactive in mkiv

Making bibliography references interactive in mkiv

[Christian]

Hello list,
I'm currently using the built in bib-module in mkiv together with a bib database file.
How can I set it up so that clicking on a reference takes me to the corresponding entry in the publication list?

Example:
...lots of text...
You can find more information in [23].
...many more pages of text...

Publications
...
[23] Hoekwater, T. (2006). CONTEXT Publication Module, The user documententation.
...

When clicking on "[23]" in the text, I want to jump right to the [23] entry in the publication list.

Is this possible?

maybe '\setupinteraction[state=start, focus=standard]' can help you.

That's not working for \cite, I'm afraid.
Wiki says about setupinteraction[state=start]:
"This makes all links generated with the \goto command (and indirectly the \in and \at commands) clickable."

I don't know enough about the inner mechanism of the cite command, maybe it's
possible to define a custom command that uses goto.

I have \setupinteraction[state=start] in my mkiv-document and get 
clickable links (they are displayed in green) for all my \cite.  Those 
links bring me to the correct bibliography page.  Could you please 
provide a minimal example that's not working on your machine?

Kind regards,
Stefan

Yes, of course.
Please find attached: example.mkiv (the document) and the corresponding example.bib.

BTW: It seems that "alternative=apa" causes this problem. Found it while constructing the example.
So the question is: Why is the functionality lost, when using another cite style?
