PhoneCall Problem

Hi all,
I am building a wap site for my company and we are using PhoneCall on our
wap site..

What is interesting is that even if I have downloaded device updates ( both
1-4 ) , Nokia phones don't support PhoneCall and it renders all numbers (
test and display ) on it while browsing...

How can I add the Nokia PhoneCall support to my application ? Is there a way
to do this ?_

Any help is appreciated

Regards
Ersin_

It may be a limitation of the devices themselves. You should find out from
Nokia if those devices support the browser tags that represent PhoneCall
functionality. If not, the ASP.NET mobile controls will render as text.

Yes that is a possibility, but actually what if I am doing something wrong
with the device updates ?

now I am using .net framework 1.1 and have all the device updates..

At least I want to the device to show the alternate text on the screeen if
it can't initiate a voice call ?  how can I do this ? Alternate text works
on web , but doesn't work on Nokia phones ?

Thanx In Advance
Ersin :)

Looks like an issue with the device updates, however the phonecall component is very limited, i have found it also does not dial the "+" on some phones so will not pick up the idd codes.....

My current fix is to use a hyperlink to pass the phonenumber to a standard asp wml page.

Note some phones need the + escaped (%2B), to dial it.
