usually when i send from webinterface a mms, arabic text works just fine, however while using a vbscript mentioned in these forums, it doesn't work. I wonder what type of parameters should i set to allow MMSText to be sent in arabic. Thanks | |||

Hi, That's a real good question. By default, NowSMS expects text to be submitted in the UTF-8 character set. The web form specifies that character set is to be used, so the web browser automatically handles the encoding for you. If you're submitting the text via direct URL submission, or via a script, you can either encode your text in UTF-8, or you can pass a parameter to NowSMS to tell it which character set the text is encoded with. In the case of Arabic, include the URL parameter "&charset=iso-8859-6". Or, with the VBScript, include the command line parameter: charset=iso-8859-6 -- Des NowSMS Support | |||
