I'm facing a problem with links accross multiple org files, when I publish
to HTML. Here is a minimal working example. file1.org looks like
<<target1>> Target 1
[[target1][Go to target #1]]
[[file:./file2.org::target2][Go to target #2]]
while file2.org looks like
<<target2>> Target 2
In emacs, when I click on the second link, it opens file2.org all right.
However, when I export to html, here is what file1.html looks like
<body>
<div id="content">
<h1 class="title">file1</h1>
<p>
<a id="target1" name="target1"></a> Target 1
</p>
<p>
<a href="#target1">Go to target #1</a>
</p>
<p>
<a href="./file2.html">Go to target #2</a>
</p>
</div>
<div id="postamble" class="status">
...
</div></body>
The second link should read (I believe)
<a href="./file2.html#target2">Go to target #2</a>
Is there something I'm missing? Thanks for your help!
NOTA: my emacs setup is such that
(setq org-link-search-must-match-exact-headline nil)

There's no support for exporting links to targets across files. You can
only target a headline, through its custom-id, e.g.,
[[file:./file2.org::#custom-id][...]]
or through its title
[[file:/file2.org::*Headline title][...]]

Hi,
that's what I feared... I know it works with the CUSTOM_ID property.
Unfortunately, I'd like to link to an item in a list.
Is there a (possibly dirty) work around?
Best regards,
Sébastien

You may use a custom-id syntax pointing to your target:
[[file:./file2.org::#item-target][...]]
Though, you will not get item number if you do not provide
a description.

Hi,
thanks for your answer. This indeed works. Is was sure I had already tested
this solution, with no success... Thanks a lot!!!

Correction: CUSTOM_ID does not seem to work with description lists (it
seems it only works with headings, *, **, ***, ...).

It would be useful to know what you wrote in your Org file, what the
output is, and what you expected.

Hello,
yes, that might help. Org-file =references.org= is a list of bibliographic
references. Each entry is actually an item in a description list, like so
#+BEGIN_SRC
- <<HASH1962>>
[[http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0022-5096(62)90004-2][Hashinand Shtrikman
(1962)]] :: Z. Hashin and S. Shtrikman, /On some variational
principles in anisotropic and nonhomogeneous elasticity/, Journal of the
Mechanics and Physics of Solids 10(4):335-342, 1962
#+END_SRC
Then, in other org files, I'd like to refer to one of the items in the
list. For example, I would like to write something like
Using the energy principle of Hashin and Shtrikman (1962), an upper bound
on the elastic moduli can be derived.
Once exported to html, I would like the text 'Hashin [...] (1962)' to be a
hyperlink which should point to references.html#HASH1962.
Do you need more details? How can I achieve that result?

What happens if you write
[[file:./references.org::#HASH1962][Hashin and Shtrikman (1962)]]
in other Org files?

There are two answers
1. in Emacs, clicking on the link opens the file references.org, but I get
"No match" in the minibuffer
2. in the exported HTML file, the link is correct (something like <a
href="./references.html#HASH1962">...</a>)
If I instead write
[[file:./references.org::HASH1962][Hashin and Shtrikman (1962)]]
(without the #), then the behaviour is the exact opposite
3. in Emacs, the link (including the dedicated target) is found
4. in the exported HTML file, the link is incomplete (<a
href="./references.html">...</a>)
What I would like is 2 + 3...

I have pushed a change to html back-end (in master branch) so that an
unresolved option should still appear in the exported link. IOW,
[[file:./file.org::target][...]]
will become
<a href="./file.html#target">...</a>
This is slightly different from link resolution in a single buffer,
because, in the case above, a headline named "* target" will have
priority over a "<<target>>".

Thanks for this quick answer. I have never built Org-mode myself (always
relied on ELPA), but will give it a go and will report.
Anyway, thank you for your dedication. Org is really a great tool !
