Dear all...
When you have a Voipcheap account, u can send a SMS with HTTP.
Make voipcheap account [ upgrade with a few € ]
Make a Dummy switch
Login to your voipcheap, call/sms and the to HTPP:
- ScreenShot072.jpg (77.1 KiB) Viewed 1784 times
Go to :
- ScreenShot073.jpg (60.26 KiB) Viewed 1784 times
And test your settings in the browser.
Just copy and paste.
Put the good url in your dummyswitch:
- ScreenShot074.jpg (54.47 KiB) Viewed 1784 times
And when you click the switch you got a sms....
Make different dummy's with different message ...
Or to different people..
Proud of myself.

At 0.075 per sms? 100 sms is 7,50 euro... man that is expensive.
I'm planning to use something like 3g USB modem (like TP-LINK MA260) together with a prepaid sim only which is still way more cheaper then 0.075 per sms... Even my with cell plan i only pay 5 euro a month for unlimited calling and sms...
But then if you only want to send like a couple of messages a month, then try something like
http://textbelt.com
which is
FREE, 75 sms a day, against 75 sms (a 5,63 euro) of voipcheap or any other 3rd party sms reseller (which seems to me, sorry to say, like a rip-off), may or may not work in your country (and seeing your phone number here, it probably does work, works for my dutch number),... and there are other free alternatives.
Just a good google search away...

Free dutch vodaphone... (and a lot of other providers/countries)
http://www.watacrackaz.com/autosms/api.php still would use textbelt thou (less scripting)...
http://www.txtdrop.net/ <-- did not wireshark this one
For americans (international might work)
http://www.txtdrop.com/ <-- download osx widget and look inside for TxtDropFreeSMS.js and TxtDropFreeSMS.html
it contains:
Code: Select all
function sendTxt()
{
var request = new XMLHttpRequest();
request.open("POST", "http://www.txtdrop.com/widget_send.php",false);
request.setRequestHeader('Content-Type','application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
request.send("npa="+npa.value+"&exchange="+exchange.value+"&number="+number.value+"&email="+email.value+"&body="+message.value+"&submitted=1");
var msgstatus = request.responseText;
document.getElementById("status").innerHTML = msgstatus;
npa.value = "";
exchange.value = "";
number.value = "";
message.value = "";
}
which with a little fooling around
Anyway there are so many options that are free... no need to spend money.
