Go to solution Solved by RankUpGamers,

Got the same thing done with 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC><head><script type="text/javascript">    MyWindow = window.open("tel:xxxxxxxxxx",'_parent') ;	MyWindow.window.close();	setTimeout(function(){window.location.replace("http://carter.k12.tn.us/education/school/school.php?sectiondetailid=94")},50);</script>	</head><body></body>

Now to play with the fun stuff... like using tags in the url to figure out which number

Posted

I'm trying to work on a website for my school (yay for grades doing something I care about) and I want it to be as user friendly as possible. I can't put up custom HTML sadly, but I can redirect to my site, www.rankupgamers.com, and I was making click to call links that go to www.rankupgamers.com/XXXX (xxxx = last 4 digits of number) so that I could use HTML. I was hoping to double redirect (Dials the number, then pushes you back a page)I know that HTML just reads the first redirect and won't care if you stick a second one.)

Here's my guess, with the number blocked out. 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC><head><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=tel:xxxxxxxxxx"><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2; url=carter.k12.tn.us/education/school/school.php?sectiondetailid=94"></head><body></body>

Thanks!

HTML alone cannot do this.

I'd suggest using Javascript and AJAX instead, and it will also improve the user experience if done properly.

What would be the best way to do this? Force a new tab, pop the call, close the new tab, and finally do the redirect in the bg? I just don't want my website to confuse people that want the school site.

PHP and most likely JS, you can get the referral url, if you will. Once you do whatever action you want, just get the referral url and redirect them.

 

EDIT: In PHP, $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; will give you the referral URL.

The real issue is, the referral url is always the same. I have no way of doing this that I know of without making a redirect script for every page. Not a big javascript user though.

Can you not use PHP?

Nope... The way this site is, PHP breaks... I love gov. funded stuff... never works.

User gets to Site A, I tell their phone to call a number via Redirect #1, then immediately take them back to the site they came from (#2)
