Sometimes it would be nice to be able to print or otherwise capture a screen from an iPhone app.
It occurred to me that, using the HTML mailto capability (described at http://www.iphonewebdev.com/examples/mailto.html), it might be possible to permit iUI-based apps (as well as others) to "print" by having the print button link look roughly like this: mailto:?subject=Hello&body=<div {size-constraints}>...{screen- contents}...</div> where screen-contents would be the DOM HTML for whatever element makes the most sense in iUI. The div would have to be constrained to fixed width, but as a bonus it could be rotation-sensing. The user can select any email address in their contact list. If this all works, this would permit the user to then print the iPhone web app screen from any HTML-compliant email client, as long as the enclosed HTML was supported by the HTML rendering engine for their email client. I have not had a chance to try this out, but I throw it out for discussion.
