How to stop path from Templates when setting anchors programmatically in templates?

I'm trying to implement a dynamic telephone link within a template. It does not work as it somehow forces the templating path.

For instance, I can not resolve the following: <a href="Templates/tel:+16606465978">(660) 646-5978</a> <- Notice how "Templates/" is showing in the href attribute?

<?php
$phoneNumber = '(218) 829-3278';
?>
<!-- $tellink -->
<?php
$pattern = array();
$pattern[0] = '(';
$pattern[1] = ')';
$pattern[2] = '-';
$pattern[3] = ' ';
$telLink = str_replace($pattern, '', $phoneNumber);
$fullTelLink = '<a href="tel:+1'.$telLink.'">'.$phoneNumber.'</a>';
?>
<?php echo $fullTelLink; ?>



Demo page using this code:
https://brainerd.isemanhomes.com/test.php

Now if we try to do the same in the Template, we get the addition of the unwanted path. For instance, this is the code in the actual Template which uses a dynamic value similar to the test page:

<!-- $tellink -->
<?php
$pattern = array();
$pattern[0] = '(';
$pattern[1] = ')';
$pattern[2] = '-';
$pattern[3] = ' ';
$telLink = str_replace($pattern, '', $markerTele->getColumnVal("tel"));
$phoneLink = '<a href="tel:+1'.$telLink.'">'.$markerTele->getColumnVal("tel").'</a>'; ?>

<!-- / $tellink <?php echo $phoneLink; ?> -->

<?php echo($markerTele->getColumnVal("tel")); ?>



The problem can be seen in the comment shown on this test2 page and attached screenshot:

This should be fixed in the latest versions of the framework include file. I've attached the file you can replace that should resolve this issue.

Thanks Ray, that worked!

Have you considered creating the means to know when there are updates and which version is currently live? For instance, the website says
Latest release: June 14, 2019 (Version: 2.3.5)

All my local copies of framework.php are version 2.02 rather than 2.06 as you supplied. Am I doing something wrong as I don't have the latest framework file but have updated any time I've know of a version release?

Ray, I just deleted the framework.php file in my current project. I then created a new theme based page that deposited a new framework.php file in the project. Unfortunately, it created a 2.02 framework file rather than a 2.06.

I'm also running Databridge 2.3.5

I downloaded and installed 2.3.5 of Databridge which now uses framework.php version 2.04 which looks to cover the change needed to sort the issue I found. 2.06 seems to be a release candidate with other subtle changes?

I've updated the extension on the site and I've updated the release date. If you reinstall it should have the latest version.
