On the iPhone, how can I dial to a phone number without quitting my application? Right now my program can trigger a call to a specific phone number but doing so causes my app to quit. How can I make a call in the background or otherwise make a call without quitting my application?

You can't. The iPhone simply doesn't allow this.

Yes, and the reason is simple. All other functions on the iPhone are subordinated to the need to keep the phone function utterly reliable. because someone cannot make a phone call in an emergency, it could result in death. There are also security and privacy concerns if an app could stealthy make calls.
