What is it?
FONcall is a Firefox extension created by Fonality allowing trixbox Pro users to click on any telephone number in a web page and launch a call to that number on their IP phone or softphone.
Where do I get it?
Any trixbox Pro user can install the Firefox plugin from their User Panel homepage. Login to cp.trixbox.com and you will see the following in the lower half of the homepage:
FONcall is approximately 450 kb and works with all versions of Firefox. After you install the extension, restart Firefox to activate the extension. You will be prompted for your web username and web password (the same credentials that you use to login to your User Panel). Enter your login information and FONcall verifies your extension and trixbox Pro server id with Fonality's Data Center.
How do I use it?
Once verified, all phone numbers detected in web pages will be highlighted blue (by default) and mousing-over these phone numbers will pop a small FONcall box shown:
All you need do is click on the underlined phone number and your phone will automatically start a call!
Only Firefox?
At this time, FONcall is only for Firefox users. There are neither plans to create Internet Explorer or Safari versions of the extension nor plans to support other open source browsers.
Troubleshooting
The FONcall pop-up box will be masked by certain flash objects embedded in your website. If you test FONcall on your company's homepage and find that the pop-up box is not appearing properly and you have flash objects, you can resolve the issue by following these steps:
Publishing from Flash
The HTML for a Flash movie can be created using the Publish Settings feature in Flash. The Publish Settings dialog box provides an option to affect the WMODE setting. The options selected in the Publish Settings will be added to the HTML source code automatically:
1. Choose File > Publish Settings. Select the HTML tab.
2. Choose "Transparent" in the WMODE setting to make the Flash movie's background disappear in browsers which support this feature.
3. Publish the document.
Editing HTML code manually
To edit an existing HTML page, add the WMODE parameters to the HTML code.
Add the following parameter to the OBJECT tag:
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
Add the following parameter to the EMBED tag:
wmode="transparent"
