Hi Guys,
The free text editor on JotForm needs to be made much more versatile.
I am unable to use the href attribute for making phone numbers clickable anymore.
Other simple things like not being able to pass field variables into the html editor of the free text field but being able to when not editing the html editor is completely un-intuitive and useless.In the case of wanting to do things like set an iFrame to display a PDF which was uploaded to an upload field on a form etc.This seriously needs to be re-thought by JotForm.

HTML tags like href tag aren't allowed due to security reasons. However, you can insert a link into the text editor as seen below:

Hi Tina,
That is true for URL's but you cannot insert a link for a phone like (tel:"NUMBER_HERE")
So this has not answered my question.

The click to call link can be inserted like this:
Please check if it works on your phone when previewing the form.
We'll wait for your response.
Thank you!

Hi,
That does not work.
<a target="_blank" href="tel://085550031" rel="nofollow noopener">(08) 555 0031</a>
Is what I tried. And it does not work.
