Creating web based sms sender .

I have to make a project for CS50 and I was thinking of making a simple as possible web page which could use a form and then send an sms , I have found several services that help you do that, but I would like to develop the solution as much as I can, so my question is if anybody knows a method or a tutorial which might help me do that ?

I don't know if this would qualify, but many cellular providers have an email to sms gateway. Basically allows you to send an email to a specific email address and it gets sent to the phone as a sms. I've done this before.

The sms gateway depends on teh carrier. I'm in the US, so below is a link that has those gateways.
