Notes plugin

I was trying to create an app and as a part of the app I'd like to include a "notes" section where the user could go in and create their own notes and have it saved in the app. Does anyone know how I could do that or have a plug in that would work to do something like that?

I've modified one of the HTML5 drawing scripts on the forum so that it exports to a JPEG format, which can be exported, then downloaded onto the device (not saved for edditing). For example, the user does a quick scribble, hits export, the image opens in another window and they can then long-tap and click Save to Device. As far as NOTES go, I think that's the closest you would get. // J

Thanks. I've seen it in other apps so it seems like it should be able to be done.

So there isn't a way to make an editable note pad within the app? I've seen apps that have it but i guess I would have to use a plug in or something.
