Hi, Any database connection string is independent of NowSMS. It is whatever your database needs. Think of it this way... Could you write a script (PHP, ASP, or other web scripting language) that processed a web form where the user entered text into the form and your script used that text to interface to the database ? When you define a 2-way command in NowSMS it essentially works the same way, it is like the text message is a web form being submitted to your script (2-way command). A good starting point example in PHP can be found here: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/3991.html It shows you how the data from the text message is passed to a PHP script. You would need to add logic to interface with your database. -- Des NowSMS Support |
