Dynamically altering cell contents with custom Javascript to show two different browsers two different links!

I have a use case where I need to take the contents of a cell, in this case 01433443665, and then transform that number into a URL containing that number and then present browser 1 with a URL which looks like

http://192.168.1.50/callr.php?01433443665

and browser 1 with a URL which looks like

http://192.168.1.50/calll.php?01433443665

If you're wondering what on Earth this is for(!), it's to allow the cell to be clicked and then Asterisk/FreePBX (hosted at 192.168.1.50) takes the number and dials it on the user's deskphone.

Browser 1 is in one room, Browser 2 in another. They have separate extensions and separate deskphones.

This would have to be done with Jquery/Javascript I guess?!

I currently use Javascript like the below:

$(document).on("db-view-render.view_321", function (event, view, data) {
$("input#field_32").keyup(function() {
var str=this.value.replace(/[^0-9]/gi,"");
var d1=(str.length<=10)?str.toUpperCase():str.slice(0,11).toUpperCase();
$("#field_32").attr("value",d1);
});
});

to enforce only numbers in an input field in the database. It works well.

I'm guessing I'd have to use a Chrome extension like [Custom User Agent][1] to allow the two browsers to identify themselves to the javascript...but how to tie this all up and make it work is totally beyond me. I understand the theory and steps needed (I think) but can't begin to imagine how to code for it.

Any help much appreciated!!

Thanks...

Have you thought about saving the two urls in the database? one for calll.php and other for callr.php.

And create two different users in knack, one for room 1 and one for room 2.

Then with the page rules show the link of the url of calll.php to room 1 and the link of the url of callr.php to the user of room 2

I hope it helps you
