I have an ISDN phone which supports TAPI/CTI and connects to my PC via serial port. I can use Windows Dialer (dialer.exe) which is pre installed on Windows to tell the phone what number to call. It works perfectly and all I have to do is lift the reciever!

What I want to do is be able to use the callto: url which when clicked, automatically opens the application and begins dialling (like what Skype would do). In the registry editor, I can edit the command from

"C:\PROGRA~2\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe" "/callto:%l"

to

"C:\Windows\System32\dialer.exe" "/callto:%l"

Now when I click on a callto: url, the program opens but nothing happens. I have tried a few different variations in the "/callto:%l" part but I am getting nowhere.

Is anybody good with registry edits? Can it be done with this program?

EDIT: On second thoughts, if I cant achieve what I want above, can I set the callto link so that when clicked, it copies the link to the clipboard? Then manual paste can be done.

We use this dial.exe App that then uses the Dialer. You can find more info about it here: http://www.atrandom.iansharpe.com/phone-dial.php

I'll be taking the code and modifying it to support tel: links too as those work on Cell phones where as the CallTo: do not.
