If you elect to “Keep going in Project Spartan,” you’ll find yourself faced with an attempt to install the Chrome extension which, of course, doesn’t work wit Project Spartan (Edge). (Edge is currently named Project Spartan if you are running the Insider Preview.) If you visit the Skype for Web page, you will see a warning that it works best using Internet Explorer and suggests you use it instead. Skype for Web doesn’t work with Microsoft’s own Edge browser, which will be the standard in Windows 10. However, if you’re running Windows 10 Insider Preview on your PC or tablet, you may be in for a surprise. You will be prompted to install the extension the first time you try it. Chrome needs to have the Skype Calling extension installed before you can make voice or video calls using Skype for Web. If you are running the current generation Windows 8.1, then the answer is yes for both Microsoft’s own Internet Explorer browser as well as Google’s Chrome. Whether you can actually use it, though, depends on a combination of the version of Windows you run and the Web browser you use. You can try out Skype for Web beta by pointing your browser at.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t even work right in Windows 10’s own browser - and that OS is coming out in less than two months. Essentially, this release should appeal to anyone who uses the service on even a casual basis. A Web-based version of Skype could be useful for anyone who needs to quickly make a voice or video call from a borrowed PC, a new one fresh out of the box, or any other computer that doesn’t have the full Skype software already installed and doesn’t want to take the time go through the download and installation process.

This method adds appropriate event handlers for each of the UI elements in the options menu I've tried a lot of different things, but I can't seem to make it work. I want it so there is no need for that and that this will always be enabled. I'm assuming this code gives the user an option to enable/disable the highlighting of numbers.
