Hello all,

I have a problem with skype addon for firefox replacing phone number on top of my website to skype button. The problem is that it cuts the phone number and visitors who has this plugin will see something like "+1 (212)..." but not a full phone number, which is very important.

I tried setting "width" attribute in html and css, but nothing helps. I believe I have 2 ways of fixing it:

1. Push skype addon to display that phone number in full format.
2. Disable skype addon for this phone number (using html / js or something else).

Please note, that uninstalling addon from firefox is not a solution.

Thank you for answers in advance.

Hi all,.. I found small hack to make skype plugin to parse & display phone number in full format.

All you need is to add a <BR> tag (forced line break) at the end of the phone number.

See screenshot and attached html file.

CSS trick for Web Developers to DISABLE phone number detection by Skype browser addon (e.g. AVOID "Skype Call" buttons):

Just insert invisible <span> with "_" inside phone number:

+123 456 <span style="display:none;">_</span> 789
