Find me Elsewhere and PHP

Hello all,

I've encountered a problem with something I've been trying to implement and I'm hoping someone might have some input. I've made a custom icon and function with a plugin called "Find me Elsewhere", this icon calls:

<a href="mailto:blank?body=The article '<?php the_title(); ?>' has been sent to you. You can view it at: <?php the_permalink() ?>"

There are some changes to this line to make it work with "Find me Elsewhere" but nothing major. My problem is that in this widget the php will not work, it only works from the loop. I'm extremely new to this language, is it possible to reference the permalink and the title from this widget?

Any input is appreciated.
