Often times you can use the mail() function to send a plain text message to the text address for the phone using the carrier's email api

Sorry if I was not clear. It was not intended.Issue is the following:
I have to sent some links of data to mobile phones.

Example:
If client is inside some area, it will send SMS message to mobile phone (read smart phone possibility). As all content will be at URL, it should be supported link (the best inside SMS) that user can use.

How to recognize links inside SMS (standard mobile phone) or smart phones?

If they support enhanced sms, the phones should handle the links within sms automatically. If they don't then the user wouldn't be able to click the link from their phone no matter what you do. You would also run into the problem of different phones with different os's. Your best bet is to just send a plain text link e.g. [domain.com...] and let the phone handle the rest.
