I am putting together my homepage and I need some help with copying code. I would like to be able to have my friends be able to text message me directly from my homepage. I thought that I could just "View Source" in Safari and copy and paste that into my page, but it's more complicated than i thought.

I am wondering if someone could get me the code from http://messaging.sprintpcs.com

I would just like the bottom part with the # box, text input, and the send/clear buttons on the bottom of my webpage. (I tried doing the cut/paste from Safari to a new page in Dreamweaver, but I can't get the send/clear buttons to show up.)

I thank you in advance for looking at this. Nick

good luck dude. there's a lot more going on on that page than just the form fields that are apparent to you. there are a lot of hidden form input that seem to carry session information and other information that is dynamically created on a per user basis, probably for tracking and statistics.

also, even if you manage to submit something, they probably have some sort of security to prevent random spammers and hijackers (like you) from interfacing into their applications. you might want to look into seeing if they publish some sort of public api for sending text messages...

anyways, give it a shot, but i'm betting that you run into stuff that's a little trickier than just copying a few form elements.
