Here is an example of a function that im using for talking to a SMS gateway api..

It's not CI-ified, but it would probably give you a taste.

The SMS gateway provider will probably also give you some technical info on how to connect and manage their API or whatever.

Code:
&lt;?php

function SendSms($sender, $recipients, $message, $priceGroup, $flash)

{

    $CID = "xxx";

    $password = "xxxxx";

    if (!is_numeric($priceGroup) || !is_numeric($flash))

        return "priceGroup and flash must be a number";

    $serverRequest = "http://the.smsprovider.com/api.ext";

    $serverRequest .= "?CID=".$CID;

    $serverRequest .= "&Password;=".$password;

    if (is_numeric($sender))

        $serverRequest .= "&fromNumber;=".$sender;

    else

        $serverRequest .= "&fromAlpha;=".$sender;

    $serverRequest .= "&recipient;=".$recipients;

    $serverRequest .= "&Msg;=".urlencode($message);

    $serverRequest .= "&priceGroup;=".$priceGroup;

    $serverRequest .= "&flash;=".$flash;

    $serverResult = file_get_contents($serverRequest);

    if (!$serverResult)

         return "Returned error while trying to connect to gateway";

    $xml = simplexml_load_string($serverResult);

    if ($xml->success == "true")

        $result = $xml->msgid;

    else

        $result = $xml->errormsg;

    return $result;

}
