[cisco-voip] Cisco Click to Dial

[Joseph A. Budz]

The reason I was hoping this was available is because the free download
of Skype has this capability. I installed Skype at home to be able to
see my nephew on a web cam. After the install I noticed all phone
numbers, whether in email or web pages, now show up with a clickable box
around them. Of course, when you click it, it dials via the Skype
application and you get charged a per minute rate, but, never the less,
it works. The Skype application must be scanning the HTML looking for
phone number formats, i.e. 7, 10 or 11 numeric digits in a row then
inserting the proper HTML to make it clickable to dial via Skype. I
noticed it recognizes all phone number formats too, i.e. (216) 555-1212
or 216-555-1212 or 216.555.1212. Someone out there must have the skills
to write this using the Cisco SDK.

I'm not sure you're gonna find this. Somehow that text has to be "marked
up" or "parsed" and that is application independant. The easiest way
would be to deploy webdialer and then cut and paste into webdialer. You
can make things easier by added a "dial-me" link in your applications
but I don't think it would be that easy with email.

 

I know that Zimbra (something we are looking at) is supposed to be able
to parse text and mark them up with use of Zimlets, so you could
possibly parse out a phone number and have it clickable. 

 

But if you are looking at one plug in to catch all text in any
application, I just don't think it's possible, let alone available.

	Does anyone know of a plug-in that is written to support Click
to Dial any phone number found in any application? For example; a phone
number in the signature portion of an email or one listed on a web site.

	I am aware of the TSP integration with Outlook contacts that is
not what I need.

	 

	 

	Thank You,
