Hi,

I was wondering if anyone know where I can find any of the following. I have looked about the web and the respective sites but can't seem to find them. I know ICQ used to do one but here we go...

Some sort of form that you can add to your website so that they can fill it in and it sends you an AIM message. The same with one for ICQ.

Also, is there anything like the above that will send you an SMS to your cell phone? Ads don't matter that much.

I can't seem to find any but I do remember ICQ having something I thought.


Thanks!
Terry

Usually you can receive SMS messages via email, 9185826894444@yourprovider.net....

You'd have to check on that, but let me look for the html for an ICQ contact form...

ICQ used to have the code on their webpage. Don't know if it is still there....

Doing a message to your cell is easy.. .

Find out what the email address to your cell or pager is and have the script email the form info to that email address.

Michael

Well i'm in the UK and don't know of any phone providers who allow email > sms :/

What is the web address to your cell phone company?

<a href="http://wwp.icq.com/666666#pager" target="_blank"><img src="http://wwp.icq.com/scripts/online.dll?icq=666666&img=5" alt="YourName's ICQ status" border="0"></a>

http://o2.co.uk

used to be http://btcellent.co.uk then http://genie.co.uk fyi.

Thanks everyone so far,

Trying that Prohacker thx

Go here:

Click on Email to Mobile on the left menu under My Message Pad...

Oh, you will need to be logged in to do this. If you have not set a username and password yet it will give you a chance to do that..

When you set up your username and password it will give you an email address...

After you have your username and password login then do the first thing I told you. It will pop up a window allowing you to setup email to phone support for your cell phone... Fill in all of the appropriate fields...

From that point on the first 160 characters sent to the email address they provided you will go to your cell phone...

Regards,
Michael

Thanks very much Michael, I have given it a try, I had nothing but trouble with the old Genie (one of the O2 brands) but this looks more promising.

Cheers

No problem....

Let me know how that works out for you....

Regards,
Michael

I tried it but like before the emails didn't arrive at my phone even though i put in the confirmation code :confused:

That is your cell phone company right?

Also did you remember to set up that one form for the email to phone.....

Regards,
Michael

Yes, and Yes to both. I had this problem with them before :/

Very strange. You might should call them and see what they say....

This is what I did.

a) Visited my cell company website.
b) Checked their sms message form.
c) Hacked it :)

And now I can send SMS from anywhere. I wrote a php script which opens a socket to their website, sends form data via "post". And bingo :cool:

Just received an SMS from one of my client. :stickout
