phonegap and email, sms

[robert_t]

Phonegap looks really interesting. I haven't read through much yet but
was wondering if it's possible to send email or sms from a phonegap
application?

Thanks
Robert

email, yes, you can prepare recipient, subject and body and present
the message to the user.
sms, don't think so, but would love to hear otherwise.

From what I understand sofar you can fire the SMS editor with the
number. Unfortunately you can't pre-set the message for SMS (as you
can with Email). This is quite a disappointing limitation, but AFAIK
it's a limit on the iPhone platform, not phonegap.
Just my 2 cents,
PanMan.

Do you have a link to some example code?

Yes, that would be good!

Ah, yes, a basic misunderstanding. 

What I meant was that I would like to send generate an HTML email body (and possibly not even showing it to the user, although that's optional), squirting it out using JavaScript and not leaving the program for Mail.

Got any example code for that?

Using Apple's Mail system to send an email from within your app will
only be possible in OS 3.0, which is currently in beta.

This is what I was really asking. Thanks for the answers!

OK, another question: Is it possible to send data to a URL without user intervention or user knowledge?

Thanks

After I posted the question, I thought...surely, AJAX..... ;-)

Thanks for the confirmation PanMan!!

Rolling my sleeves up to get coding :-)

This happens all the time on the web. Use an XHR request on a simple event like onload.
