Hi,

Does N900 browser support clickable phone number links? E.g. click-to-dial, click-to-add-to-contacts?

I know following formats are supported:

iPhone:

$tag = '<a href="tel:'.$number.'"target="_self">'.$parameters['text'].'</a>';

Series 60:

$tag = '<a href="wtai://wp/mc;'.$number.'">'.$parameters['text'].'</a>';

I haven't seen any demonstration of any implementation of this on Maemo, unfortunately.

I'm sure that if these isn't an existing feature it'd be an easy add on to create, I remember seeing something similar a while back for firefox, that used Skype (on your PC) to dial something it recognised as a number on a web page.

^ works. But it will only load up the Phone program with the number entered in; you will have to press Call, etc. yourself. But at least you can \\\"Add to Contacts\\\" from there.

Gah, ignore the \'\\\'s. Stupid proxxies...

yes, n900 supports tel: uri scheme. I also remember S60 supporting it.

For "click to add to contacts" I suggest generating a vCard, all phones including n900 eat them for breakfast (om nom nom).

There's also several add-ons in Firefox that can turn phone numbers into click to dial. Ranging from Skype to Google Voice to the plain jane ones.

Ok, sorry as I am new to this system. I was hoping for a firefox add on and have been unsuccessful at finding one. So with the above are you suggesting this code currently exists and my browser should recognize phone numbers on web pages? Any help would be greatly appreciated. many thanks

Sorry but I am just a user. Please help me to understand. Can we activate the "tap to call" feature on the standard n900 browser? Does anyone know if there is any plug-in or add-on that allows to the n900 browser or any other browser working on the n900 that enables "tab to call" feature?

Thank you.
