A gadget XML file represents a full application, not a single "page" of an application. You are encouraged to build your application using the asynchronous methods that the gadgets.* and OpenSocial APIs provide. Instead of redirecting users to a new page, for example, you can use gadgets.io.makeRequest to fetch the data for that page and dynamically update the app's view when the data is returned. This provides a much more friendly experience for the user, more akin to a desktop application than a traditional web app. If you insist on using "pages," you will have to use a technique documented in the orkut Developer's Guide:
http://code.google.com/apis/orkut/docs/orkutdevguide/orkutdevguide-0.8.html#ops_querystring This basically boils down to passing a parameter (e.g. the name of the page you want to load) to the application, which parses it at load time and renders the appropriate content. While this should work, it's messier then the approach described above and not much easier to implement. As far as your second question, the dialogue box is required. Users are given a quota limiting the number of messages they can send per day from all applications combined. Because of this, they must perform the actual operation themselves, although the application is welcome to prompt them with the dialogue.
