phone_numbers.gifPlease observe this picture.  It's a sample webpage with some phone numbers. Most smartphones will now dial a phone number from your web page without any special coding needed. If you are a business owner or a web developer, please do not let example #4 happen to you.

I understand that having words in your phone number is very clever and works great for non-interactive media, but clients use their smartphones for everything today and it's only getting more prominent.  Do not frustrate them by tricking their phones.
