Example

This is a sample GET request, sending the text 'test message' to 4471234567, requesting the receipt to be sent to email address 'me@mydomain.com

http://www.webtext.com/api/send_text.html?api_id=myid&api_pwd=mypws&txt=test%20message&dest=4471234567&receipt=2&msgid=13974&receipt_email=me@mydomain.com

The message is sent to the intended recipient. Upon successful delivery, or failure, WebTEXT will receive a receipt from the network.  The receipt will have one of two possible values:
