No ideas on how to actually do it, but I have 3 thoughts on how to approach
it.
1) It's "handle CGI request" (not handling). I don't know if that was a typo
for the email or if your code is mistyped.
2) Unless you have already figured out the nuts and bolts of how to transmit
a text message to a cell phone, I wouldn't even attempt to do it thru a CGI.
They are tedious and tricky to debug. You'll be much more efficient hashing
it out in your EOC (Editor Of Choice) first, then converting to a CGI when
you've got good working code.
3) What protocol/guidelines do you have to work with? If your computer needs
to dial out to the cell phone, you need to make sure the modem isn't tied up.
