How are transactions handled in phonegap apps?
Is everything self contained in the app? if so, how does it carry out credit card transactions? i assume you will need an active net connection to carry out payments, or when the users clicks on “Checkout”, does it load a page on the users site? I have to implememnt an ecommere element into a jquerymobile app for my boss and not sure where to start.

A phonegap app is simply a special web site that is rendered by an embedded web browser (webview & co) to behave as an app.
From a regular usage (aka on PC) you can think of it as: the Ecommerce system is the website, and your mobile phone app is the browser.
if you input your credit card data into the app it will simply connect to the Ecommerce and submit the information. The Ecommerce will perform the sale transaction and return an outcome. That’s how it has to be anyway.
