Do you mean for processing received SMS messages?

Here's a simple VBscript example:

Hi,

If you're already doing it through the web interface, then it's not much of a switch to do it from your application.

You just need to generate HTTP requests from your application. There are some Java and PHP examples elsewhere in the forum (let me know if you need help finding them) ... although those examples are more for text SMS or MMS ... the principles are the same.

Basically, you're just creating an HTTP GET string and issuing an HTTP GET request to the NowSMS server.

The URL parameters that we accept are documented here:

http://www.nowsms.com/documentation/ProductDocumentation/sending_messages/url_pa rameters_for_sending_messages.htm

Our web forms do include a small bit of JavaScript related to sending out Nokia smart messaging. For example, the Nokia Picture Message form has some JavaScript that takes a string of text and an OTA bitmap to create a picture message. You can simply "View Source" on the web form to see the processing that it performs (if you are not already familiar with it).

The Javascript in that form takes the NokiaBitmapData and NokiaMsgText parameters, and builds the Data parameter that gets passed to NowSMS.

Let me know if you have any questions about it after reviewing this information.
