How to trigger a phone call when clicking a link in a web page on mobile phone?

Question

I need to build a web page for mobile devices. There's only one thing I still haven't figured out: how can I trigger a phone call through the click of text?Is there a special URL I could enter like the `mailto:` tag for emails?Device specific solution are not preferred.I know iPhone automatically recognizes phone numbers and creates a link for this, but it would be great if this could be done for images too... and also for most mobile devices.

Answer 1

<a href="tel:[phone]">123-456-7890</a>

Replace with phone number and you are good to go.
