Re: PHP & Text Messaging

I don't know of any free providers for what you want to do, but i've used http://www.clickatell.com/ to send text message notification from servers before. You can trigger the sending of the message by various methods including email and http request. Hope this helps J. On 4/19/07, Daniel Brown <parasane@gmail.com> wrote:

    I actually believe that vText is strictly for Verizon Wireless users,

but I tried sending web messages to friends without it and, according to the system, the messages went through. So I guess you could give it a shot.

Perhaps using the mail function you could just send a message to ##########@vtext.com and they would get the message. To my knowledge this is a free service and works with all phone providers since they do the message for you. Just a thought.

I have attempted to look at the archives for this, but keep getting redirected back to the main PHP site when I click on the archive link. With that said, does anyone know of any good resources for sending text messages using PHP? I have Googled this topic and found a few, but find it hard to judge which ones are "good." I have also looked at the SAM package, but wasn't sure how much that is being used by the community.
