iPad - Recognizing specified telephone number after globally disabling

I'm have webpage optimizes for iPad, and I've noticed that sometimes it recognizes my random numbers as telephone numbers. I've dealt with that with this meta:

<meta name = "format-detection" content = "telephone=no" />

and it works perfectly. But now I have kind of a problem. On one webpage, I have contact information (including telephone number), and I want that telephone number to get recognized. How can I tell iPad to recognize only that number, while ignoring all others ?

Solution

  • You need to explicitly inform Safari what is a telephone link. Take a look on the IOS Developer Library.
