The BlackBerry browser and Safari for iOS (iPhone/iPod/iPad) automatically detect phone numbers and email addresses and convert them to links. If you don’t want this feature, you should use the following meta tags.

For Safari:

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

For BlackBerry:

<meta http-equiv="x-rim-auto-match" content="none">

As an additional note  you may also add markup language for pausing or waiting  I learned this from the iPhone iOS which allows numbers to be stored with extension numbers in the same line   A semi-colon establishes a wait  which will show as a next step upon calling the number  This helps to simplify the workflow of calling numbers with extensions in their board  You press the button shown on the bottom left of the iPhone screen when prompted  and the iPhone will dial it automatically    lt a href  tel  50225079227 1  gt Call Now lt  a gt    The pause is entered with a comma      allowing a short pause of time for each comma  Once the time has passed  the number after the comma will be dialed automatically   lt a href  tel  50225079227 1  gt Call Now  you will be automaticlaly transferred lt  a gt

When dialing a number within the country you are in  you still need to dial the national trunk number before the rest of the number  For example  in Australia one would dial      0 - trunk prefix    2 - Area code for New South Wales 6555 - STD code for a specific telephone exchange 1234 - Telephone Exchange specific extension    For a mobile phone this becomes     0 -      trunk prefix    4 -      Area code for a mobile telephone 1234 5678 - Mobile telephone number   Now  when I want to dial via the international trunk  you need to drop the trunk prefix and replace it with the international dialing prefix       -      Short hand for the country trunk number   61 -      Country code for Australia    4 -      Area code for a mobile telephone 1234 5678 - Mobile telephone number   This is why you often find that the first digit of a telephone number is dropped when dialling internationally  even when using international prefixing to dial within the same country   So as per the trunk prefix for Germany drop the 0 and add the  49 for Germany s international calling code  for example  giving    x000D   x000D   lt a href  tel  496170961709  class  Blondie  gt  x000D      Call me  call me any  anytime x000D         lt b gt Call me  call me  I ll arrive lt  b gt  x000D          When you re ready we can share the wine  x000D   lt  a gt  x000D   x000D   x000D
