Default SMS messaging
I need to do some SMS Messaging to all cell phone networks worldwide (big issue, worldwide) and was wondering if anyone knew of any standard PHP libraries to accomplish this? I would be collecting SMS numbers and carriers from users and would need to be able to send out to them.

Please advise.

There aren't any free, cross-OS PHP ways of doing it. However, search and ye shall find.

I found some open source shell scripts and C++ libraries, so I guess I'm stuck with shell_exec from PHP.

Thanks anyhow.

filburt1 - you're absolutely wrong.
It would be a TOP 10 hack to be.
Somebody needs to think about it.

Please read what I've said. There is no free way of doing it. I've researched this extensively for my project at NASA and I think I know what I am talking about.

Yeah,I've abandoned SMS for a project because of legal problems with using an automated script to send SMS through a website. They don't like that.

you're wrong :P i did this once, it was free but illegal.

I had an ASP script sending the contents of a submitted form to an online SMS form provided by a service. My ASP form subitted my user name and password of my account and then inserted the contents of the message field in my ASP form into the input box on the service providers sms form. You're message fields need to be named the same.

This was a while ago, but i havent tried it with php. the only disadvantage to this was that all sms were sent through your account, and the reciever cant reply to the text.

Okay...there is no free, moral, legal, efficient, sane way of doing it.

hehe. you could always purchase a commercial piece of software and charge your users a subscription fee to use it. enough to cover the costs of the software?

obviously a home made solution would be better.
