Using the sms: protocol on Symbian devices opens up the Compose message screen. Example:

<a href="sms:?body=Example%20test">Send SMS</a>

When tested on BlackBerry,  it gives an error: "The protocol specified is not supported by the handheld. Please try a different URL."

Is there any way of achieving this in BlackBerry?

There is no current support for the SMS uri in the BlackBerry browser.  Only the mailto functionality.

Is there a workaround?

I need to be able to open the sms app with the mobile number(s) that appear on a link on the bb browser as per (sms:+3423423333) for example.
