Hi.
We operate an SMS Gateway service (http://www.kapow.co.uk/) which would do
exactly what you need.
It's been reliably sending SMS since 1995 - and MANY of our clients use PHP.
What you'd probably want to do is make an HTTP Get / Post request directly
from your script to our servers, alternatively you can use our Email-to-SMS
interface and then just generate an email.
Using either method with PHP should get you up and running in a few minutes.
Costs wise, it's cheaper than using a GSM mobile connected to your own
machine (and more reliable) as there are no set-up fees or monthly costs...
you just pay a few pence per message for the SMS that you send.
Take a look at the site @ http://www.kapow.co.uk/ for more
info, or let me
know if you'd like me to set-up a free demo for you.
Hope this helps.
Andy
