    {
        string senderusername = "xxxxx";
        string senderpassword = "xxxx";
        string senderid = "xxx";       
        string sURL;
        StreamReader objReader;
        sURL = "http://websitename.com/smsapps/pushsms.php?username=" + senderusername + "&password=" + senderpassword + "&sender=" + senderid + "&mobile=91" + txtMobileNumber.Text + "&type=1&message=" + txtMessage.Text;
        WebRequest wrGETURL;
        wrGETURL = WebRequest.Create(sURL);
        try
        {
            Stream objStream;
            objStream = wrGETURL.GetResponse().GetResponseStream();
            objReader = new StreamReader(objStream);
