hi,
If I try to use link abbrevations inside tables, there are some issues
when exporting to latex. Say for example, if we consider the following eg :

| test | [[ads:test]] |

If the link contains this ampersand '&' character, which has special meaning
inside latex table, org mode generates incompatible .tex file. With the
latest org-mode {from git sources}, I have the following generated output :

------------8<---------------------------------8<--------------------
'pdflatex' simply fails to produce a pdf because '&' has creeped in due to
'#+LINK: ads' expansion. This simple problem can be solved by treating
'&' as special character, and replace it with '\&'. For above example,
just replace 'test&db' with 'test\&db' IN-THE-FIRST-ARG-OF \href. Well, I
am new to elisp, and I am still figuring out how to counter this issue.
[Oh! what a lame excuse!].
Thanks,

Hi Yuva,
sorry that it took so long for me to look at this problem.
This is a very strange one, in particular because it is different
inside versus outside of tables. Could be classified as a LaTeX
problem if you ask me.
However, I have implemented a work-around now, so this problem *should*
go away now. Please verify and report back.
Thanks for your report and patience.
- Carsten

I think I should thank you for your reply ;-)

Well, I don't know much about latex. Its one of the reasons why I've switched
to org-mode.
