Hello, I'll try to make this as clear as possible. What I want to do is Monitor the status of a process I have on a mySQL database. When the status = fail I want to automatically generate a text message from nowSMS to me notify me of this failure... Is this possible or has anyone done someting similar? Thanks, Barry | |||

If you dig around in the docs or on the message board you'll find the URL paramters for sending SMS messages. With this you can construct a URL that will trigger an SMS message and then call it using wget in a script. Something like 'wget http://your.server.name:port/Send%20Text%20Message.htm?PhoneNumber=1234567&Text= message%20text' although you'll have to check to make sure you're using the correct parameters. | |||
