Hi,

Can anyone give some examples of how to send Chinese SMS?

I have downloaded the latest Web API guide but I was unsuccessful in sending Chinese SMS.

I am using POST method. For a normal text message, the URL would look like such:
http://www.commzgate.net/gateway/SendMsg?ID=YourIDg&Password=YourPassword&Mobile=6598888888&Message=test&Type=A

So would a Chinese SMS look as such according to the example in the Web API guide?

Hi Lifetron, you are absolutely right.
The "4EBA" in the example is a UTF16 encoded version of the Chinese character. (UCS2 encoded to be more technically accurate but you can use UTF-16)
