If you do not want to be notified on new action items for this group, please 
update your settings at:

The proposal is simply to use HTML <a> element.

So, instead of:
  widget.openURL("sms:+123456789101112");

It would just be:
 <a href="sms:+123456789101112">Send and SMS</a>

Then you can use the .click() element to open links programmatically (on trusted URI types) or only respond to explicit user interaction (the user clicks on the link to do something).

Kind regards,
Marcos
