Send Text Message Using PHP And HTML

To Send Text Message It Takes Only Four Steps:-

  1. Create an account on mvaayoo.com and get api to send message
  2. Make a HTML file and define markup
  3. Make a PHP file to send text message
  4. Make a CSS file and define styling

Step 1. Create an account on mvaayoo.com and get api to send message

Create a account on mvaayoo.com and get sms api and user id to send text message.They are giving 20 free message and after that they charge some amount per message.

Step 2. Make a HTML file and define markup

We make a HTML file and save it with a name message.html 

<html>
<head>
<link href="message_style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"/>
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">

<div id="sms_div">
 <form method="post" action="send_message.php">
  <input type="text" name="recievers_no" placeholder="Enter Reciever's No">
  <br>
  <textarea name="message" placeholder="Enter Message Text"></textarea>
  <br>
  <input type="submit" name="send_message" value="SEND MESSAGE">
 </form>
</div>

</div>
</body>
</html>

In this step we create a form and two text fields to enter phone no and message text and send details to 'send_message.php'.

Step 3. Make a PHP file to send text message

We make a HTML file and save it with a name send_message.php 

<?php 
if(isset($_POST['send_message']))
{
 $curl_start = curl_init();
 $user_detail="Registerd Email:password";
 $receiver_no= $_POST['recievers_no']; 
 $sender_id="This Is A Demo Message"; 
 $msg_txt= $_POST['message']; 
 curl_setopt($curl_start,CURLOPT_URL,  "http://api.mVaayoo.com/mvaayooapi/MessageCompose");
 curl_setopt($curl_start, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
 curl_setopt($curl_start, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
 curl_setopt($curl_start, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "user=$user_detail&senderID=$sender_id&receipientno=$receiver_no&msgtxt=$msg_txt");
 $buffer = curl_exec($curl_start);
 if(empty ($buffer))
 {
  echo " buffer is empty "; 
 }
 else
 {
  echo $buffer; 
 } 
 curl_close($curl_start);
}
?>

In this step we get all the values required to send message like recievers phone no and message text and then we use same procedure describe by the website to send message.

Step 4. Make a CSS file and define styling

We make a CSS file and save it with a name message_style.css 

body
{
 margin:0 auto;
 padding:0px;
 text-align:center;
 width:100%;
 font-family: "Myriad Pro","Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,Sans-Serif;
 background-color:#01A9DB;
}
#wrapper
{
 margin:0 auto;
 padding:0px;
 text-align:center;
 width:995px;
}
#wrapper h1
{
 margin-top:50px;
 font-size:65px;
}
#wrapper h1 p
{
 font-size:18px;
}
#sms_div input[type="text"]
{
 width:450px;
 height:35px;
 border:none;
 padding-left:10px;
 font-size:17px;
}
#sms_div textarea
{
 width:450px;
 margin-top:5px;
 height:70px;
 border:none;
 padding-left:10px;
 font-size:17px;
}
#sms_div input[type="submit"]
{
 background:none;
 border:1px solid;
 width:200px;
 height:40px;
}
