Question about multiple pages, split-chars and the use of headers and/or footers.
While I currently have the system setup like I would assume most do, where you have various services setup to deal with each request, I'm leaning in the direction of setting up just a general catch of all inbound messages and queuing them. Then having a separate process come along and process each one as it was queue and using sendsms to push out the replies (if any). This means that I will pretty much know before the reply message is sent, the size of a message and could then format messages accordingly so that the message has a header or footer indicating it is related to the rest of the message if it is larger than one page. I've seen a company that provides a voice mail to transcription service do something like this where each "page" had a header on it indicating that it was part of a group of messages. Their messages end up looking like: ((1 of 3) from Phone number Message... ((2 of 3) from Phone number continued msg: Continuation of message ((3 of 3) from Phone number continued msg: last of message I think I can generate the top of each page section, but I'm not sure how the split-chars part works. -- Kevin
