Viewing IPAD Issues

IPAD Issues



User: Lester D. 11 years ago
Can anyone advise if they experience the same issue?
I have just completed a new website using ever web, looks fantastic and works well on the desktop. However when viewed on an iPad, suddenly has all phone numbers are 'activated' and appear in an unscripted lurid shade of electric blue. Any suggestions how to overcome this?

That's the way it works on mobile devices. It's a convenient way to add addresses and phonenumbers to Contacts.

Paste the code in the Header Code box and see if that works.

And Apple knows about it :

Paste this meta tag into the head code box of any pages with phone numbers...

<meta name="format-detection" content="telephone=no">

...to prevent the formation of a default link on iPad.
