I am in the progress of setting up a script where a user can goto a certain website, supply info
like a message and their name and instantly page someone on their cell phone by using the PHP based
web form. The text would then be sent to the cell phone reciepents screen as it was typed on the web
form.
My problem is this.. I got a script at http://www.hotscripts.com/Detailed/9816.html
called PHPmyPagers that supports SMS and ICQ messaging, which of course I would use as SMS for what
I was working with. Inside the options.inc.php script, it asks for a $pagerservice command which
they document as "the syntax of the paging service of your service provider is" inside the
script comments.
So here is my final question.. I have a Nextel cell phone that supports text messaging and all that
jazz. Does that support SMS? And if It does, what is the server or IP address I can use to send
messages thru their network. If it doesn't require their servers and I can use a current
mailserver domain, that would be cool.
If any of you have any suggestions, let me know. It would be great help to me and others who have
always wondered how to do this sort of thing :)
