Hello all-

I have made a pilot site for my boyfriend and I while we live in Grenada (Caribbean) for 2 years while he attends medial school there.

I am trying to learn two things:
  1. Is there anyway to have a message board on the iWeb page (not a link to one) where our friends and family can post comments or messages and have them show up on our site?
  2. Is there anyway to set up international SMS/text messaging on our site where friends/family can directly enter their message, number, etc and press send - then we receive it on our phones there? (It's free to receive texts on Digicel Grenada)

I want to make communicating with us as easy as possible. You will see that I have set up Skype buttons for our friends to call us.

Thanks for any info you may have.

I don't know anything about iWeb, but the easiest way to send SMS over the internet is by sending an email to your.cell.number@teleflip.com. It works quite well for me.

As far as integrating that into a website...I could do it really easily in php but have no idea about anything with iWeb, so I'll leave that up to someone else.
