I'm trying to make Skype link on a webpage, which starts a chat with multiple participants. According to Skype URL API reference, participants in URL should be divided with semicolons. However, following code does not work at all:
<a href="skype:person1;person2?chat">Start chat (multiple)</a>With only one participant, it works correctly:
<a href="skype:person?chat">Start chart (single)</a>What am I doing wrong?
I just tried the link in your first example and noticed that "person1" had a profile picture (a yin and yang symbol), which made me think that those users have to exist for it to work (the "person" in your second example is probably another existing user). So I tried it with person1 and another real contact from my contact list, and it worked. So it appears that you have to use a skype username that actually exists.
