Mobile web coding for phone numbers

The LibraryAnywhere group email had useful information today which may resolve an issue I have noticed on phones other than iPhones.

On iPhones, when a text string which look like a phone number is listed, tapping that number will allow the user to call it on the phone. I do know that if you highlight the number on an Android, it will recognize it as a phone number and let you call the number. The method below is said to make automatic calls of the number on phones in addition to iPhones.

By using link coding similar to this, we should be able to make our numbers callable:

href=tel:+11234567890 = (123) 456-7890

The number code includes information to alert any phone anywhere that the number is for a call to the United States.

We need to test this on available types of phones.
