Links in footnotes in LaTeX

[maparent]

Good day! Links generate a footnote in LaTeX/memoir; but if I have a link in a footnote, I get a nested footnote. Eg:

Text with footnote[^fn]

[^fn]: Footnote with link example

Becomes

Text with footnote\footnote{Footnote with link \href{http://www.example.com/}{example}\footnote{\href{http://www.example.com/}{http:/\slash www.example.com\slash }}}

Unfortunately, nested footnotes are not such good news in LaTeX. Could it be simplified to the following?

Text with footnote\footnote{Footnote with link \href{http://www.example.com/}{example}}

I realize it means missing the URL, but it's the best I can think of at the moment.

That's the way links are created for LaTeX so that URLs are visible when PDFs are printed. If you want to create a link inside a footnote for LaTeX, I would suggest using the <http://example.com> syntax.

I don't plan on changing this behavior currently.
