I am creating an Android app using Phonegap.
I have installed phonegap using the commands on their website.
Everything is up and running with the SDK and Emulator.
Now when I run the example camera script from their website to get it working before I start cusotmising it.
Everytime I run the code below (even though I have the file linked to phonegap.js) it keeps throwing an error. I mean the script runs as far as the HTML and showing the buttons, but when the button is clicked nothing happens and in the log it says: Cannot read property 'DATA_URL' of undefined.

I have tried to use the following:
<script type="text/javascript" src="phonegap.js"></script>
and
<script type="text/javascript" src="cordova.js"></script>
Nothing seems to work.
I have changed the following in capturePhoto() and capturePhotoEdit() from:
destinationType.DATA_URL
to
Camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL
Still no luck with the functionality. I suspect it has something to do with the cordova plugin and phonegap, as I only have phonegap.js included in the script. I'm also reading about settings in the config.xml, which I have done through command line (unless I have done it wrong) following the docs.
I have built the application by CL:
phonegap build android
The following code with cordova-2.5.0.js and destinationType.FILE_URI added has successfully enabled the getPhoto() functions and allows me to display the photos in library/album.
