Sending SMS using AJAX through HTTP

Hey guys. For my project, I needed to find a way to send SMS messages from AJAX using HTTP. It turns out, it is easy to send messages from AJAX using HTTP requestes and a software called Ozeki NG SMS Gateway.
First you need to download, install and configure Ozeki NG SMS Gateway software to your computer. You can download the source code from their webpage: http://ozekisms.com/index.php?owpn=246

This code is particularly useful for

• add SMS functionality to a website.
• add SMS functionality to a corporate Intranet.
• create automated SMS notifications.
• increase website security by adding SMS login.

Here is a part of the source code:

smssend.js
...
function GetXmlHttpObject()
{
var xmlHttp = null;
try
{
// Firefox, Opera 8.0+, Safari
xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
catch (e)
{
// Internet Explorer
try
{
xmlHttp = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
}
catch (e)
{
xmlHttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
}
return xmlHttp;
}
...


I hope this will be as useful to you as it is for me! Thomas
