Pocket PC Forum / End Users / SmartPhones / July 2004XDA 2 - How to Dial a phone number from a webpage
XDA 2 - O2 UK I have a mobile webpage that has contact numbers on and I'd like to add the ability for XDA 2 users to dial the number shown on a webpage by clicking it? Thanks in advance for your help Try html like: <a href="tel:12063722651">call</a> Cheers, max > XDA 2 - O2 UK > > I have a mobile webpage that has contact numbers on and I'd like to add the ability for XDA 2 users to dial the number shown on a webpage by clicking it? > Thanks in advance for your help >> Try html like: <a href="tel:12063722651">call</a> << W O W !!!! That is _great_ information!!!! Just tested it and it works! For those of us not coding directly, using an html editor, all you need to do is to create a "link" containing tel:12334567890 Thanks!!! Question... are there any other telephone related keywords similar to this... I am especially interested in anything that will generate DTMF _after_ a call is in progress.

SignatureDarren Griffin Pocket GPS World - http://www.pocketgpsworld.com The Premier GPS Resource for News, Reviews and Forums this is an excellent idea -I'm going to add it in to the Remote Web Workplaces of some of our clients.. thanks & regards -David A brief followup to this... it appears that there is also a "dtmf:" option that works in WM2003 (but does not work in PPC2002.) This would be extremely valuable on the i700 as there is no way to generate dtmf tones after a call is connected other than by tapping the keypad... i.e. entering access codes. Assume that everyone knows that you can use any PC html editor to create custom (PPC Screen compatible) pages with these links, then copy them to the PPC for local access. You can also generate a shortcut file which can be placed in the start menu to trigger special dialer lists. Beverly Howard [MS MVP-Mobile Devices] Thankyou very much this is most helpful, is there a webpage you know of that has more of these types of options?
