Phoneto integration: Launching a dialer application from
a web page
Use the phoneto link to launch a configured dialer application, with the telephone number automatically
filled in, from a device web page. An example of the HTML markup for a phoneto link is as follows.
<a href=phoneto:18005551212>Toll-free directory assistance</a>
On your device screen, a phoneto link looks just like any other link, but the link text should make it clear
that this link makes a phone call.
♦ To launch a dialer application from a web page
1. Tap the telephone number link on the device.
2. The dialing will initiate automatically.
Note
You will get an error message if the device does not contain an integrated telephone. The error message will
display the telephone number that was selected, so the user could then manually dial this telephone number
on another device.
