Could I create "Call" button in HTML 5 IPhone application using PhoneGap? Pushing this button should invoke call to certain number on IPhone device.
If you can specify a URL for the button, use the URL format tel:phonenumber.
Best format is no punctuation in the number, so:
Call Apple Customer Support at 1-800-275-2273
Use this "tel:phonenumber"
it will NOT work on emulator, but it works on real device.

I think you're looking for something like the tel link: Inserting a pause into a tel:// link
I've not tried it, but putting this into the htmlText of a TextField and clicking on it should work
Android has a similar functionality I think:

I am wondering how can I open the send SMS application by using a web control of a HTML5 page on Android and iPhone. I want to use the device native SMS sending app, with a prepopulated value from the web.
Further to other answers I can confirm that smsto:555:bodytext does not work on an iPhone running iOS5.
What does work (and I've tested it) on Android is the format:
sms:444?body=hello
Example:
Tap to say hello!
On iPhone the ?body=hello will prevent it working at all, and you should use just sms:555 instead.
sms:555
Example
Tap to text us!
I have tested the below and it works:
Using HTML Anchor tag:
Subscribe
Using JavaScript:
window.open('sms:111?body=SUBSCRIBE', '_self');
With Android 3.0 SDK Google has started exposing API in HTML5 for device access. An example is listed here. It may not be enough for what you seek to do.

Are you trying to replace the dialer application, or simply invoke it? On official phones, the dialer cannot be replaced or have another application provide that functionality.
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"tel:1234---"]];
