SMS request for a content provider
Posted: Mon Oct 02, 2006 2:40 pm
I am trying to develop a content provider in PHP. So here is what I want to do:
1- a mobile phone user sends sms with specific content(in my case it will be number of the ringtone)
2 - SMS center sends the contents and the user details to my content provider.
3 - content provider matches the ringtone id and sends back a link to the sms center
4 - sms center sends (using wap push i guess) the link to that specific user
5 - user then clicks on the wap link and downloads the ringtone.
If I am not wrong I will have to deal with SMPP protocol. I want to develop this system in PHP. Are there any ideas how to accomplish this task?
I am a bit confused about steps 3 and 4. I dont know whether sms center will implement wap push technology or I have to deal with that while sending link from content provider.
I am afraid this will be quite difficult to do in PHP?
What u guyz think?
THanks.
