Sending Information from a form to a mobile phone

Information sent by text to a mobile phone from a html form

Hi Guys,

Not sure if this is possible or what the issues would be to create this application.

Am creating a support website when a user fills out a simple html form (say 2-3 text items up to 120CHAR) and when the user returns the form the details get forwarded to a database, email address (these 2 are fine) and also to a number of UK Mobile Phones. There would probably be up to about 12 mobile phone numbers that will receive the information.

Has anyone had any experience at this or come across any sites that could help?

What would be the security issues (apart from the obvious spamming of the form)?

Anyone know what the costings are likely to be?

Idealy I would like to create this application and not use a third party to send the text messages through.

Thanks in advanced.

I do something similar. We send short bits of information to our subscribers via email and SMS. It's fairly easy but you'll need a third-party text message provider. Do a Google search for "bulk SMS" and you'll find loads of them.
