How can i write a function that a click event of a submit button on a webform will send a text or string message to a phone number. Using vb or asp.net code

Where and how is the phone number held?

Here is how we do it for the moment:

We store the users 10 digit phone number and then also the name of their provider.  At&T, Verizon, Sprint, Etc.  Then when we need to send a test be combine the phone number + the respective domain.

So sbc global may be something like 4448781111@sbcglobal.net

That is just an example.

You can find many lists on the web for providers and their email addresses.

You then just create a mail message and send the text via email which is covnerted to a txt through the service providers network.  Otherwise, I would suggest a third party api that will handle text messages for you via a web api.

So we are sending the message the same way as a regular email message.
