I’m trying to send a sms using php from my ftp server in the background. I want to send a sms whenever I query data from one of my folders. I send GPS coor. to my ftp server in the form of a txt file and use php script to query that data and display it using google maps. I want to send the sms whenever it pulls the lonlat. I know of the mail() in php but wondering how to implement it. I am new to php and have been assisting someone else on this but we have reached a deadend. We’re are trying to do this for free.

You can send an SMS by sending an email to the phonenumber@the provider’s email address. For example, if the user you wanted to text was a verizon customer and their phone number was 800-555-1234 you would send an email to 8005551234@vtext.com and they would get the text message.
This web page provides a nice list of the providers and what email address to use for them.
