call phone number from browser
 
hi everyone, is there any way/plugin that let call a phone number directly from a web page? is such a pain to switch between browser and dial pad to make a phone call.

thanks

+1:i would support the cause..show the number as a link..then when we press the number it should show two options one via network others via different VoIP skype and google talk incorporated:...wow that sounds great..:D

Copy & Paste works.

i tried this method, and it kind of work,

kind because numbers are clickable on a goggle search page, but they are not for example on a gmail message

anybody knows why? i tried with exactly the same number, same format

and guess what, the numbers on the emails are the ones that i really use most.

thanks

ps actually, on the same search page, some number is clickable some is not..... ouch..

numbers need to be in link (href) format?
can't click them if it hasn't been specified as a phone number.
maybe look for a greasemonkey script to transform the non clickable ones.

i understand, so it needs to be in the souce code of the page.

but i do remember like somebody else recalled in the other post that skype in the past made a plugin for firefox to highlight all the numbers on a page as phone numbers.

well, at that time i found the thing a bit annoying and ditched it, but in this case it would not bother me

and by the way how do you copy and paste a number from a webpage??
