    Sending SMS Thru HTTP - Conclusion


    (Page 6 of 6 )

    That's It! Although it took me a long time to find CURL, I think it is the best, neatest and quickest option assuming your version of PHP supports it. Furthermore, whilst both fsockopen and CURL can send thousands of messages in one go, fsockopen might give you difficulties when parsing responses for large requests as the responses are transferred in chunks.

    The above took me ages; I hope it saves you time.
