If it's just what you are looking for, then you can give a try to mmslib, which is a php library designed to upload mms on a website : http://www.hellkvist.org/software/ NZ. -----Message d'origine----- De : [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] De la part de Gareth Reakes Envoyé : vendredi 22 avril 2005 15:59 À : Mbuni MMS Gateway Users List Objet : Re: [Users] nokia 6230 as GSM Modem Hi Paul, Thanks for your time. I think the mobile area is very interesting. I have developed more on the rich client side and am now exploring this area so I don't have an exact target. I had a few things that I wanted to understand how to do. The one I was thinking about here was a system where users could upload photos to a site. I started this with SMS and my nokia, and then went onto MMS. As has been pointed out to me, the nokia will retrieve the data and then not send it to me. I have ordered a MC35 GSM modem so I hope that then I can receive the special message and download it myself. Is this the case? If it is, then I assume I just have to decode the message and then do what I want with it. What actually determines whether a MMS should be sent to a phone? I have and ericson that supports MMS, but if I use that as a GSM modem I just get a SMS saying to go to a web site. Is this the phone repsonding saying no, or is it a network setting?
