Hi,

I’m having a problem with the SMS link on one of my Mobione pages. The SMS link seems to work as long as I don’t add the page to my IPHONE’s home screen. If I do add the page to my home screen the SMS link throws the following message “Cannot Open BCP Mobile BCP Mobile could not be opened. The error was: “The URL can’t be shown.”
Thanks in advance for looking at this.

@TonyG – thanks for this report. I confirmed you experience where SMS: URL will not load when invoked from a webapp launched from the iPhone home screen. I am discussing this with our dev team to see if there is a workaround.

Edited –
update-1: I just saw a fix get checked in for the upcoming 1.1.1 release (next week).

update1: the dev team researched this situation and found a mechanism where sms: URLs work when opened from a webapp launched from the home screen, i.e., an iphone webclip. What is not clear yet is how to generalize this mechanism for the many possible contexts of MobiOne. Will keep you posted on how we plan to resolve this and a timeframe.
