Any help will be appreciated very much.

Run LaTeX here

which worked in my test, then replace \url{...} in the author with \myhomepage

Use \urldef or \detokenize or \noexpand or \string. Note that hyperref loads url automatically; you don't have to load it explicitly. Here is an example showing all four possibilities (probably there are a lot more methods):

I use hyperref too, but not the url package.

Problem: Using \~{} or \textasciitilde{} in the text display part of \href urls produces a raised tilde, which is acceptable because the tilde is really a diacritic mark, and as such should be used in accenting characters. But this doesn't conform to normal document use of "~" in web documents and unix cmds. The web use of ~ based and the use of ~ the unix cmdl shortcuts is abnormal, but understandable, and you should be able to typeset them.

To fix this for your LaTeX document to look nicer you can try

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

1

3
\usepackage{textcomp}
...
\texttildelow{}

But this produces a tilde symbol that now looks to low (understandable since it is still supposed to be a diacritic).

Solution
So my preferred method of typesetting "~" in url's, or, if you do not want to load this extra package during tex'ing, just define a mid-tilde in your preamble

Code: Select all

1
\newcommand{\midtilde}{\raisebox{-0.25\baselineskip}{\textasciitilde}}

Alternatively, you might use the url package,

Code: Select all

1
\usepackage[lowtilde]{url}
 
 
הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

which uses a faked mid-tilde in urls using the maths \sim
