Posts: 704                Hello all,

Can anyone provide some direction for me, to create and send text messages?  I 
do not know the differences between this and email either, so any info would be 
helpful!

Thank you!
Tim

I do it trough a third party HTTP API.
The basics is that I send a http request to a server containing the recipient 
mobile number and the message itself

Who is the third party?  And why is this necessary?

Location: San Jose                you just email out the text message

you can search online for email to text bridge

one list would be:
http://www.livejournal.com/tools/textmessage.bml?mode=details

so if cell phone number is (408)123-5555 and on verizon service
then email  address would be [email protected]

Location: Jönköping, Sweden                There are a lot of companies that 
has an API that you can use to send text messages. Of course you have to pay 
them for all the messages you send. All the providers use different APIs so I 
can't really give you an example here. Could help if you know the one you would 
like to use  I use a Swedish company called Cellsynt.se

If you use the "email to SMS" approach it's not 100% certain that the message 
get to the receiver or if the receivers network support this feature.
