I read this “odd” code on another site that would make it work on an iphone AND the other ones.
————————————–
on other forum i read :
Call
so which should we use to get best results!
and if we use something like:
206-555-1212
what will it do, …. logically either of the tags should fail gracefully, and the other should work!
practically any inputs?

Okay, let’s try it again without making the code disappear. . . But the preceding example is good for showing what it would look like. . .
on other forum i read :
<a href="tel:XXXXXX">Call</a>so which should we use to get best results!
and if we use something like:
<a href="wtai://wp/mc;2065551212" href="tel:2065551212">206-555-1212</a>what will it do, …. logically either of the tags should fail gracefully, and the other should work!
practically any inputs?

Can someone test out the “odd” and “unvalidated markup” to see if it works on both an iphone and other cell phones?

Followup: I had someone with an iPhone test out the combined link and it didn’t work for here.

On the iphone to make a number clickable just enter it with the international standard:
+41 79 121 12 12 <- This appear as a link on a IPhone, but there is no HTML Tag to specify it.
Wtai (from WAP) is not supported by the IPhone. Seems that you will have to detect if the webpage is browsed by an IPhone…

Hi,
Do you know how to make a clickable video 3G call ?
I’m searching wtai functions and library and I’ve only found MakeCall, Add to phone book, Send DTMF functions …
Thanks for your help.
