Answer 1

In the of the html, you can put:

Safari HTML Reference:

By default, Safari on iOS detects any string formatted like a phone number and makes it a link that calls the number. Specifying telephone=no disables this feature.

Or to unset this detection from a web view programatically using the dataDetectorTypes mask:

webView.dataDetectorTypes &= ~UIDataDetectorTypePhoneNumber;
