Error in sending sms using HTML to SMS API

Hi,

Sorry for it. It's a known problem. When you need use " double quote, please use ' single quote instead of it.

The API is used in our sms gateway so I cannot control how the users compose their sms message.

Hopefully your developer will fix the message value in JSON report to return a value with backslashes before characters that need to be escaped like single quote ('), double quote ("), backslash (\).

Hi sir,

We will fix it in the future. For now, please use "report=string" instead of JSON.
Picture below shows you the result I test in my place.



sendsms.php is my test script for you to refer to.

<?php

function sendSMS($ip,$phonenumber,$message)
{
$username = "smsuser";
$password = "smspwd";
//$port = "";
//$report = "";
//$timeout = "";
$message =urlencode(mb_convert_encoding($message, 'utf-8', "auto"));
$url = "http://$ip/sendsms?username=$username&password=$password&phonenumber=$phonenumber&message=$message&report=string";
//echo "$url<br>";
$link = curl_init();
curl_setopt($link, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($link, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($link, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
$response = curl_exec($link);
curl_close($link);

echo $response."<br>";

$array = explode("\n",strchr($response,"result"));

foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
echo $array[$key]."<br>";
}

$report = substr($array[0],7);
echo $report;

if ($report == "success") {
echo '<center><p style="font-size:30pt;color:red;">SMS Sent successfully!<p></center>';
} elseif ($report == "sending") {
echo '<center><p style="font-size:30pt;color:red;">SMS is sending, please check later!<p></center>';
} else {
echo '<center><p style="font-size:30pt;color:red;">SMS is failed, please check your device or settings!<p></center>';
echo "<br>";
}
}

$ip = $_POST["ip"];
$phonenumber = $_POST["phonenumber"];
$message = $_POST["message"];

sendSMS($ip,$phonenumber,$message);

Wish this will help you.

That's a great help! Appreciated. Thank you.

Hi sir,

Thanks for your feedback.
If you use JSON report format, it's allowed to send sms with double quote( " ), single quote( ' ), backslash( \ ) too. Here below is the script I use for test.

<?php

function sendSMS($ip,$phonenumber,$message)
{
$username = "smsuser";
$password = "smspwd";
//$port = "";
//$report = "";
//$timeout = "";
$message =urlencode(mb_convert_encoding($message, 'utf-8', "auto"));
$url = "http://$ip/sendsms?username=$username&password=$password&phonenumber=$phonenumber&message=$message";
//echo "$url<br>";
$link = curl_init();
curl_setopt($link, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($link, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($link, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
$response = curl_exec($link);
curl_close($link);
echo '<p style="font-size:15pt;color:blue;">Response<p>'.$response."<br>";

$report = explode("\"",strchr($response,"result"))[2];
echo '<p style="font-size:15pt;color:blue;">Response<p>'.$report."<br>";

if ($report == "success") {
echo '<center><p style="font-size:30pt;color:red;">SMS Sent successfully!<p></center>';
} elseif ($report == "sending") {
echo '<center><p style="font-size:30pt;color:red;">SMS is sending, please check later!<p></center>';
} else {
echo '<center><p style="font-size:30pt;color:red;">SMS is failed, please check your device or settings!<p></center>';
echo "<br>";
}
}

$ip = $_POST["ip"];
$phonenumber = $_POST["phonenumber"];
$message = $_POST["message"];

sendSMS($ip,$phonenumber,$message);
?>
