Well, funnily enough, your question has much the same answer ... If you have a mobile phone and your service provider offers a web gateway, you can use it to send SMS messages. They will provide a script that you can use. If you have an Orange phone, see the Orange web site. If it's a Voda, see their web site, and so on. The charge is usually the same as it would be if you sent the message from your phone, but if you have a contract it may include "free" messages.
There are services such as NovelSoft (http://www.sms-wap.com) that are independant of provider, but you have to pay for them too. Novelsoft is quite cheap, and there are PHP scripts on the site, but some providers don't accept their messages. I have a NovelSoft account, but I can't use it to send messages to my Orange phone. I read somewhere that this is because some of their customers used the service to send spam.
