How can I do that? Like sending sms from a website to the mobile. I have no idea about it. Can you guys recommend me any resources for this? Of course, the opensorce scripts.
I wrote a class for this. http://www.bytemycode.com/snippets/snippet/647/ You need an account on TM4B though.
nah, no point, use tm4b, clickatell are another but thier paypal integration, and I imagine all other payment options suck, tm4b are instant and provide a great service, clickatell I've had paypal disputes with and never gotten an answer to an email regarding thier service..... Wanna send on windows ??? http://krakjoe.com/projects/Win-SMS ( works with tm4b only, as I mentioned clickatell suck boobs )
ooh good thread, sms api's are something i've been playing around with recently.. tm4b hey.. i'd signed up for clickatell recently but will check out your suggestion as an alternative cheers
if your local service providers provide APIs you can directly integrate your php code with api and send SMS. I did that for my SMS client in PHP using AJAX. It used to send SMS on all 3 major local networks. Worked only local but was great as it was free, very quick and reliable. BUT drawback, is you are dependent on your local service providers.
so is this all totally free? I mean I am not still sure that sending sms all over the world from my site is totally free of cost.
No it is not free, a lot of service providers have email2sms gateways that will deliver sms to thier customers mobile phones, that service is normally free, but using something like tm4b or clickatell is not
u have to connect your site with sms server provider and they charge for it per sms sent by your web site
The first time I made a PayPal payment to Clickatell, they really messed me around a fair bit because their Website payment is catered for CC Paypal. After a dozen emails to the girls, we agreed that I write to the email address after the paypal is sent. Email address is monitored 9-5 by Talitha Schutte and Naseema Khatieb at Clickatell Accounts. Write your payment notification email including API and Username/Pwd to them so credits appear in your account within 10 minutes.
