title: URL Scheme for Phone Call
body: <p>Much like the "mailto" URL prefix launches the user's default mail program and starts a new email with specified address, is there a similar URL scheme that would initiate a phone call? Perhaps "phone," "call," or "sip"?</p>
  
  <p>Incidentally, I'm targeting a platform that is using Cisco CUPS, so there may be a platform-specific way for me to initiate a call that is particular to Cisco, but I thought I'd ask the more general question first. However if anyone knows specifically how to programmatically initiate a call via CUPS, that would be great too.</p>
