Just like the title...is it possible to click on a phone number from a website using the native browser and the phone immediately dials and phones?

Sort of like Skype click to call if enabled on laptops/desktops...

I have only been able to do so on a couple of sites -- where I believe the numbers were specifically coded. Sites with phone numbers that my iPhone will dial are not doing so from my Z10 or Z30. I'm really hoping to see this addressed in the next OS release.

Also got this well-informed response from sk8er:

"Yes, as long as the website admin wrote the number in proper HTML format indicating it's a clickable phone number.

There is a universal standard for doing this but some website admins don't use the standards and will write the phone number as standard text, which will prevent the number from being clickable.

Example: <a href="tel:1-555-555-1234">555-555-1234</a>"
