Biblatex long URL not a complete hyperref

Post by Shingo »

I have a problem with Biblatex and an URL entry. I have an entry with an URL but LaTex does not interpret it as an URL, only a part of it.
I have the following example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper,twoside]{report}
\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{times}
\usepackage[backend=bibtex8, style=alphabetic]{biblatex}
\usepackage[babel,german=guillemets]{csquotes}
\nocite{*}
\addbibresource{litest1.bib}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents*}{litest1.bib}
@online{3rdlargest,
author={Douglas E. Iannucci},
title={The third largest prime divisor of an odd perfect number exceeds one hundred},
url={http://www.ams.org/journals/mcom/2000-69-230/S0025-5718-99-01127-8/S0025-5718-99-01127-8.pdf},
year={2000},
urldate={2014-11-10}
}
\end{filecontents*} 

\begin{document}
test 
\printbibliography
\end{document}
As u can see, everything after the '.org/', or everything in the new line, does not get interpreted as part of the url. So after compiling the hyperref does not work.

I have two other questions.
Is there a biblatex style closer to the old bibtex style alphadin? Something different from alphabetic?
And is it possible to have numbers like 10^{1500} cursive in the title of a source?
Thanks alot.

This has also been asked at GoLaTeX.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.
