----------------------------------------------------------- From: LovedJohnySmith Message 12 in Discussion Good Day Folks, By example http://www.smsdriver.com/. They almost global and they support also automatic media conversions. All you have to do is to make a service contract with them and buy a bunch of SMS-s. You have to send SMS-s from your site using HTTP requests to their service server. Also they have a pretty good documentation with examples. Btw, there are many other services too. I strongly recommend that you make yourself clear what exactly one or another provider gives you. But it's all your decision how to you implement SMS sending. Basically the process is as follows: i) You have your server where is running ASP.NET and your application. Also you have account in SMS provider HTTP server and you know all the information you need to know about SMS-s sending. ii) Prepare the HTTP request using System.Net.WebClient class or System.Net.WebRequest class. These classes allow you to create an HTTP request with all URL parameters and POST body. Usually you have to send your passwords and other authentication information also with request. When sending files you usually need to make hex dump of files (each byte is represented by two digits hex code). iii) Send request to SMS provider server and receive response. Response contains usually information about request. You can find out if sending succeeded or failed. This is the information about your request, not about the SMS sending/receiving process. Provider, when sending out SMS, doesn't know if it is received or not. My experiences show that SMS sending is very easy. Some problems may rise when sending out binary content over SMS (like operator logos, configurations, etc). But you can always ask help from service provider and usually they react very fast.
