newseed Posted April 11, 2014 Report Posted April 11, 2014 Can someone test this using IPHONE to see why it only works for android but not for iphone? http://www.maximumsecurity.com/ The code I used is below: Note: I added a image link here for just this post so you can see the code otherwise this forum strips them out: http://my.jetscreenshot.com/22574/20140411-kzay-9kb.jpg I have also tried the following: tel:7145504123tel:8005380600 All are links using the anchor tag. PLEASE note that this is occurring using Safari browser. I have no way to test for other browsers on Iphone.
falkencreative Posted April 11, 2014 Report Posted April 11, 2014 I'm pretty sure you need the country code -- so both numbers need a "1" in front of them: tel:17145504123
newseed Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Posted April 12, 2014 Thank Ben but it did not solve my issue. The first number with area code 714 is using tel: with the country code. The 800 number is using the wtai: and again with the country code. I did this so you can see both options. Neither worked for iphone using safari. I am using browserstack to test this but I am baffled as to why it's not working.
Andrea Posted April 12, 2014 Report Posted April 12, 2014 It worked for me - I tapped on both tel:7145504123tel:8005380600 and got
newseed Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Posted April 12, 2014 Can you give me the phone version and did you have safari as the default browser? Thank you.
newseed Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Posted April 12, 2014 Updated, based on your screen shot, it seems you were testing the number via this forum. Did you go to the site I am referring to and see if it works there?
Andrea Posted April 12, 2014 Report Posted April 12, 2014 Sorry about that - I just now went to the site directly and tried the phone number that are in the header. The 714 number worked, but for the 800 number I got a "Cannot Open Page - address invalid" message. I am on an iPhone 5 and Safari.
Andrea Posted April 12, 2014 Report Posted April 12, 2014 Btw, you have a redundant closing span tag right after Register / Login in your accountbox division
newseed Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) Thanks Andrea. I have been tinkering with it all day and so I am uncertain the one that worked for you is what I have up there now. Can you please check both numbers again to see if it work? I am using tel:1-714 etc. etc. and tel:1-800 etc. etc. I promise not to touch the code until Monday. Thank you. Edited April 12, 2014 by Eddie
Andrea Posted April 12, 2014 Report Posted April 12, 2014 Just tested. Both numbers brought up the call option. Looks like you fixed it!!!!
newseed Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Posted April 12, 2014 Great...but I don't know why it doesn't work using browserstack? Sure would have save me a lot of trouble and time. Thanks.
