Problems using extensions in tel: hyperlinks on Android 4

Question

We have a mobile web site with some phone number links, like this:

href=\"tel:12345678,123\"

This works fine on most devices, but it appears it doesn\'t work

Answer 1

I just tested both methods with Android 2.1.

tel:5553334444;ext=123 ends up dialing an extension of 358123 instead of 123 because it converts ext into a number instead.

The right way is to use comma.

tel:5553334444,123

Tried that with our extension here and it connected me through immediately. It first dials the number, then pauses, and then punches in the extension 123 on its own.
