If you're building a website that uses a continuous string of number  
for something (like an account number), Apple recommends you do the  
following:

123<span>45678</span>9

Or something to that effect.

The software on the iPhone/iPod touch tries to auto-detect phone  
numbers. By adding the <span>, you throw that detection off.
