    I'd like make a phone call off a Web page where the number is displayed in various forms like 604.xxx.xxxx or 604-xxx-xxxx. I tried selecting and holding but it just gives me option to copy... but I don't know where to copy to? Is there something I'm missing?

    you can type the command into the stock browser and it would initiate the call for you... (e.g tel:604xxxxxxx)

    there is an html tag on the web page that allows for that <a href='tel:123-555-1212'>Dial Me</a>.

    This is how the web developer would need to code the phone number to make it a "call-able" link. This is not meant for the end-user.

    Yeah my previous phones all you had to do is hold your finger down on the phone number on the website a nd you had the option to dial.

    The Z10 so far does not have this option built into it.

    copy that number you want, go into your browers url and type in "tel:" (without the quote) and then paste in the number. it will give you a call confirmation

    Ummm, yes it does, exactly the same as previous OS's on other BB's. The HTML code has to be on the page for it to work...and many pages just don't have it. Try a Yellow pages website - most if them have it in their pages.
