These are the various options that i have tried using table structure for newsletters. My problem is that on the click of the phone number on mobile devices and it redirects to a new page having the callto or tel in its url, whereas in browsers it redirects to a blank page. Help me out on this.

<a href="tel:9865551555">9865551555</a>
<a href="callto:9865551555">9865551555</a>

  • Smart phone devices automatically detect the number and we get the option to call the number or save the number as contact, but here I want the devices to detect the number in a newsletter(EDM's) and give the user the option to call the number. Tel and callto doesn't solve this problem as it redirects to a new page with the number in its url. The phone devices gives the pop up saying request server cannot be found. I hope my question is clear. – Joel Aug 14 '12 at 05:57

Be sure to include the country code. The format found in this tutorial worked well for me.

<a href="tel:+19865551555">(986) 555-5155</a>
