Is it possible for a mobile browser to send an SMS using the device’s built-in capabilities?
By that I mean, NOT using some online SMS services provider but actually making the mobile device send the SMS (same you would do using J2ME).
There are lots of different mobile browsers out there, so I doubt that this is standardised. Safari/iPhone supports SMS URIs, which strikes me as a sensible approach to the problem and one that might be more widely supported than just the iPhone.
