Is there a way to stop Microsoft Lync from detecting phone numbers in a web page, and adding its click to call icon to that phone number in Internet Explorer?
Obviou
I've found the following regular expressions (on this blog) which the Lync plugin seems to use:
(\+?1[\-\. ])?(\(\d{3}\)|\d{3})[\-\. ]?\d{3}[\-\. ]?\d{4})
((\+?1[\-\. ])?(\((800|880|888|877|866|855|844|900)\)|(800|880|888|877|866|855|844|900))[\-\.0-9A-Za-z]{7,9})
(\+\d+[\-\. ](\(\d+\)[\- ]?)?\d[\d\-\. ]+\d)
((x|X)\d{3,5})
So using or ‐ should prevent Lync from detecting the numbers.
