I love this forum, all the sms expert is here! Can i know how to do this: Certain website you need to register first before you can access to it. After you have been regsitered, you will receive an sms notification let you know your id & password, cool right? my question is, how to do this & what system they use? any website to refer to? many thanks.

You have several possibilities... why do u want people to receive the password via SMS ? Is it to confirm they are the owner of the GSM ? If yes u should ask them to send an SMS to confirm the registration and send them the password via email. If ur system is bad designed u can receive thousands of registration that would result in thousands of SMS sent, and a big cost for u. Also when u ask the people to send information, this information must contain a key to prevent people activating other accounts than their account. The most important thing about SMS is security, and revenues. If u dont need that then use emails ;) | |||

Hi fred, thanks for your feedback. I like your idea. Agreed that should use email insead of sms for security & cost purpose. But where can i get the source code/script? I've search thru hotscript.com but cannot find anything on these? I really need someone to help me.  | |||

Jason, If your system is not somehow related to confirming that someone is the owner of a particular phone number, then I wouldn't use SMS, it's too expensive. And if you have reasons to use SMS, put limits to the number of messages that you will send to a particular phone number, so that you don't get people running up your SMS charges just for fun ... or attempting to hack your system. Fred's suggestions are good. I don't have any suggestinos for sending e-mail from a script. But I'm sure you can find something as that's a pretty common task ... | |||
