Hi ! I working on a site where i can contact potential employees through a skype button and either call or message them. I already implemented the button next to each employee on my list( code can be found on official skype pages). But if i press these buttons on my website a get a pop up reading "pick an application" and then i get to  my  windows folders.  What application is requested ?

Unfortunately the matter hasnt been solved. I only got to open skype client through following code <a href="skype:contactX?call">Call</a> where contactX is the specific skype contact that should pop up. Unfortunately that doesnt happen and only the general skype client pops up. Still looking for a solution
