Creating Web Sites for the 4630/4630SW IP Telephone
132 4600 Series IP Telephone Release 2.2 LAN Administrator Guide
Links
As of Release 1.8, the 4630/4630SW IP Telephones support dialing from hyperlinks. To dial
from a link, a given link’s href attribute value must of the form tel:nnnnn or
javascript:dial(‘nnnnn’). Selecting that link passes the characters nnnnn to the 4630/4630SW
Phone application for direct dialing.
Hyperlinks are the heart of the Web browser’s power. The link allows the user to:
● click text or an image to jump to another Web site,
● click text or an image to jump to another page within this site, or
● click text or an image to jump to another area on a page.
Although URLs allow you to use various protocols, use only HTTP and HTTPS for the 4630 IP
Telephone Web Browser.
● <a> specifies the full or relative URL for a hyperlink. When using the target attribute, never
use the _blank name. With the exception of frames, the 4630 IP Telephone Web Browser
is not intended to be a multi-window browser. Thus, if a page attempts to reference a new,
non-frame window, the browser becomes confused and a reboot is necessary.
● <base> defines the default target to be used in all <a> tags. This is done by setting the
target attribute of the <base> tag. If the target attribute is set in the <a> tag, the <base> tag
value is ignored.
Using the target attribute with the Web Access Application is strongly discouraged because the
application supports a single window for browsing. The use of the target attribute can cause the
browser software to create a new window that is outside the Web Access Application's control.
Frames
Frames allow multiple windows to be created on the browser's base window. The browser is
effectively split up into multiple areas. Each frame can be given a name or ID. Using the target
attribute of the <a> tag, a Web page can be displayed in another frame.
Although frames behave as defined, the small size of the screen makes them impractical to use.
Just like tables, frames take up too much room on the display. One can, though, take advantage
of frames by having a small “table of contents” frame with images for links. In general, however,
use of frames is strongly discouraged.
● <frameset> defines an area for a set of frames.
● <frame> defines a single frame in a frameset.
● <iframe> defines an in-line frame.
