I am planning a project where the user would click a button in Flash and if registered in database (if not, they would be alerted to register), a short message would be sent to their cell phone.

I understand this can be accomplished by concatenating the users cell phone number with @_[providersdomain.com](http://providersdomain.com)_ see: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_carriers\_providing\_Email\_or\_Web\_to\_SMS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_carriers_providing_Email_or_Web_to_SMS)

We would need an array of providers addresses to choose the address format from the provider field in the database to be combined with the cell number.

Does anyone know if a script exists for this purpose? How difficult would it be to do this?

Thanks in advance for your help!
