Sending SMS texts ...

Hi
How are SMS texts sent from websites?
Do they require a special server? etc?

Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for that.

Is there anything relating to UK SMS scripts anywhere?

Thanks for the link.
I am after to be able to get an open source (or licensed in a way that I would be able to use it for free) project, to be able to use on a website I am thinking of. But for a UK market.

Not fully sure what your saying, lol, sorry, but here is a list of a few open source versions:

Are there any scripts, that I can install on a server (php/mysql), put in whatever data it needs to send the sms's (i think its an email address?)?

Thanks

SMS Scripts are simple. All you need is to make an e-mail script. For example; create the script, have it input a 10-digit phone number. Then, have the user select a phone service. For this example, let's use T-Mobile. You would do some code (if done with PHP) $phonenumber\@\$service... Then it would send the e-mail to this:

10digitphone@tmomail.net

All you really need is the phone number, an e-mail account, and the service provider's SMS forwarder e-mail... (in this case, tmomail.net)

Where can I find a list of the service providers SMS email?
Do i send the message as the subject? Body etc?
Thanks

For most, you need to connect to all the telco, either through their text messaging e-mail or web forum.

For more advanced SMS, you need to connect to at least a telco, and send from that telco.

You can't just send from nowhere.

Sorry, but that doesn't make any sense to me.

What is a Telco?

Telco = Telecommunication Comany = Phone Company
