Description

I use InapBrowser to open site which has some buttons containing with href="tel:somenumber"

The app opens the phone and the number is there, I think a DIAL intent is used. However after hanging up the phone you get the message that teh page "tel:somenumber" could not be opened.

By adding this code in the InappBrowser, I get the wanted behaviour
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
if (url.startsWith(WebView.SCHEME_TEL))

{ Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse(url)); cordova.getActivity().startActivity(intent); return true; }

return false;
}
