I am currently testing the PPG functionality of kannel.
I have successfully received a push message to my T39 using the pushkannel.conf config file
and pushing using test_ppg with the example control and content documents.
But what I don't understand is how the tokenised SI document is working?
SI and SL documents are send to the phone as a SM. Because of that they are tokenised, meaning
that essentially that they are compressed. (SMs cannot be very long). They are send to PPG as xml
documents, virtue of this being that they are human readeble (I certainly cannot read following one
without specs.)
In documentation there is an example document:

What does the php script do?
It is a script accepting SM over HTTP and sending them, using Kannel sendsms service. We used
Kannel HTTP SMSC here because we had before PPG implementation an existing "SMS manager",
it is, an application for sending SMs.
Does this mean that the Push Initiator accesses the PPG via http?
Yes, but here XML documents are used. Userguide contain examples of these, too.
