    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-33?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13201539#comment-13201539 ] 

Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-33:
------------------------------------

Setting tel links using document.location will not work. The workaround is use this function:
https://gist.github.com/1725083

{code:javascript}
function openInWebView(url)
{
    var anchor = document.createElement('a');
    anchor.setAttribute('href', url);
    anchor.setAttribute('target', '_self');
     
     var dispatch = document.createEvent('HTMLEvents')
    dispatch.initEvent('click', true, true);
    
    anchor.dispatchEvent(dispatch);
}
{code}

> reported at: https://github.com/callback/callback-ios/issues/29
> possibly this happened since ios5,
> currently i have this plugin which allows me to make tel links, https://github.com/mcfedr/PhoneGap-ios-PhoneDialer, but there is still the underlying issue which i think might be because of something phonegap does.
> a simple phone does nothing and we get an error in the console.
