I want to send sms to my users through my website ,is there any way to do it with php or any other sofware,
what i want is to help my users get their private message alerts on their cell phones, is there anyway to do it without tieing up with the smm providers on the web ,like they tell to pay you few cents per sms ,is there anyway i can do it free, like cani become a provider just like them ,or make a way like, if a user agrees to pay for alerts ,than whenever an alert goes the amount gets deducted from the user's cell phone , i am a newbie ,so dont know much hoe things work in cellphones and web interface ,any help is appreciated

Yes, i'm pretty sure that it is possible, but as you, i am a newbie in this especific area of development -never work with it -, so, i recommend you to visit the php classes website where you can find a lot of php classes that will help you to do it.

Best regards,

i visited the php classes website and found a good php script that can send sms messages. Works great! there are also a few others that i havent tried but dont look half bad.

good luck

Thanks for the reply guys, i am trying them now and they seems to be really good.

How can i receive and process SMS's content in PHP?

You can't. SMS (aka text messaging) is limited to phones. Not unless your server has a phone line hooked up to it! (<--- I want full credit for that if that ever becomes an invention).

I work for a cell phone company. As a user of one though I constantly use google sms (www.google.com/sms). So you must be able to do this if were accessing google info through sms. Facebook does it as well.

Im kind of interested in this myself I know that you can rent a 5 digit cell phone number for calling or sms (dreaded premium messages). Even if you just had a cell phone with a nothing plan (can receive unlm sms on most providers) you could connect it and write a script that uploads the info to mySQL.

With verizon, you can send text messages to an email and process them accordingly using a php script. and sending them is just as easy. to send to the number (843)-888-9944 on verizon, the email address is



8438889944@vtext.com



and it will usually (not always if they have an alias) come from taht address as well. that's what I use.

Which script did you end up using?
