Re: [flexcoders] sending a text message from air/flex application
or you can send via email. If you are only concerned about sending outgoing messages without replies and interaction you can send via email. eg, for t-mobile send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Of course you still need a server+middle ware to handle the sending. Without a server you could use a mailto link to use the users email client.

Re: [flexcoders] sending a text message from air/flex application
Thanks everyone. As Douglas mentioned, I actually do not need or expect any reply. Douglas what did you mean by server+middle ware. Can you send me some link where I can learn a little more about it.

Re: [flexcoders] sending a text message from air/flex application
Flex can't as of yet send email. You need some server and code there to handle this. Thus server+middleware, middleware being Java, PHP, PHP, etc.. You can set this up pretty easy with a single page that accepts a form POST and have Flex use HTTPService. http://www.php-scripts.com/php_diary/122899.php3 is some example PHP code. CF would be just as easy. DK On Sat, Aug 2, 2008 at 7:23 PM, Vivian Richard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks everyone. As Douglas mentioned, I actually do not need or expect any reply.
