msg:4215429 | 12:55 am on Oct 12, 2010 (gmt 0) | Hi - I have a directory of professionals and want those professionals to receive calls direct from a 'call this professional' button in my directory. Is my only option to offer a call back service? 'Enter your number and someone will call you back' OR Is there a cool way that I haven't though of (Twilio anybody?) that can route a call from my directory to the office number of the professionals listed in my directory? Cheers - JoC

RFC 3966 - The tel URI for Telephone Numbers: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3966 [tools.ietf.org] you also have to deal with the various issues regarding local, 7- vs 10-digit local, long-distance and international calling.
