Abstract
A communication system for sending SMS messages from a computer through a server to a mobile phone, from a mobile to the computer and to recognize messages and store them in associated boxes. The system includes a www page generator on the server for generating www pages, a message receiver on the server operative to receive a message from a www page, and a SMS message sender and receiver on the server operative to send SMS
messages to a mobile phone and to receive SMS messages from a mobile phone and to store them into a file storage area. The www page generator, on request from a computer, generates a new www page, and places messages from the file storage area to the new www page and forwards the new www page to the computer.

Description
Virtual Mobile Phone - SMS Box Field The present invention relates to a method of construction of a virtual mobile phone on a computer.
Background It is usual to send emails from a computer, to receive them and to store them in message boxes either on a server or on the computer.
However, there is at present no system for sending SMS messages from a computer to a mobile phone, to receive messages and to store them in message boxes either on the server or on the computer.
It is an object of the present invention to send SMS messages from a computer or server to a mobile phone, to receive messages and to store the messages in message boxes. A method of reply recognition may be used as well, which method is described in my co-pending Canadian Patent Application Serial Number filed on April 22, 2002.
Summary of the Invention According to the present invention there is provided a communication system for sending SMS messages from a computer through a server to a mobile phone, from a mobile phone to the computer and to recognize the messages and store them in associated boxes. The communication system includes the following:
(a) a www page generator on said server for generating www.pages;
(b) a message receiver on said server operative to receive a message from said www page; and (c) a SMS message sender and receiver on said server operative to send SMS messages to a mobile phone and to receive SMS
messages from a mobile phone and to store them into a file storage area;
The www.~aae generator, on receiving a request from the computer, generates a new www.paae, and places messages from said file storage area to the new www.page and forwards the new www.page to the computer.
Brief Description of the Drawings Further features and advantages will be apparent from the following detailed description, given by way of example, of a preferred embodiment taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Fig. 1 is a schematic drawing of the communication structure; and Fig. 2 is a schematic drawing of the www page for the present preferred embodiment.

A method of reply recognition may be used as well, which method is described in my co-pending Canadian Patent Application Serial Number filed on April 22, 2002.
Summary of the Invention According to the present invention there is provided a communication system for sending SMS messages from a computer through a server to a mobile phone, from a mobile phone to the computer and to recognize the messages and store them in associated boxes. The communication system includes the following:
(a) a www page generator on said server for generating www.pages;
(b) a message receiver on said server operative to receive a message from said www page; and (c) a SMS message sender and receiver on said server operative to send SMS messages to a mobile phone and to receive SMS
messages from a mobile phone and to store them into a file storage area;
The www.~aae generator, on receiving a request from the computer, generates a new www.paae, and places messages from said file storage area to the new www.page and forwards the new www.page to the computer.
Brief Description of the Drawings Further features and advantages will be apparent from the following detailed description, given by way of example, of a preferred embodiment taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Fig. 1 is a schematic drawing of the communication structure; and Fig. 2 is a schematic drawing of the www page for the present preferred embodiment.
Detailed Description with Reference to the Drawings Referring to Fig. 1, SMS messages are sent from the user's computer 12 to the server 14 and then from the server 14 to the other person's mobile phone 16.
Conversely, the same or another person may send SMS messages to the server 14, either as replies to the original sent SMS messages, or the messages may be mobile phone originated, starting with the recipient's identification.
Alternatively, the user may have his/her own mobile phone number on the server 14.
Sent and received SMS messages are stored in files either in the server 14 or in the user's computer 12. Referring to Fig. 2, a www.paae 26 divides messages into four basic boxes, namely, an IN (Received) box 18, an OUT (Sent) box 20, a TEMPLATES box 22, and a TRASH box 24. The user can also define his/her own boxes, such as a Family box, a Friends box, aBusiness box, etc.
Each box is displayed on the display as a text array, a table, or as a list of messages. Each row in the box contains one message. The date, time, sender/receiver identification (from/to) and message text are written in one row.
From/to means the sender or receiver identification (group and/or member name, communication identifier, email address, mobile phone number, etc.). Other data may be included in the message row, e.g. message number, subject, signature, etc. In addition the status of the message may be written (e.g., "received", "seen", "replied", "sent", "forwarded", etc....).

Referring to Fig. 2, a www.paae 26 divides messages into four basic boxes, namely, an IN (Received) box 18, an OUT (Sent) box 20, a TEMPLATES box 22, and a TRASH box 24. The user can also define his/her own boxes, such as a Family box, a Friends box, aBusiness box, etc.
Each box is displayed on the display as a text array, a table, or as a list of messages. Each row in the box contains one message. The date, time, sender/receiver identification (from/to) and message text are written in one row.
From/to means the sender or receiver identification (group and/or member name, communication identifier, email address, mobile phone number, etc.). Other data may be included in the message row, e.g. message number, subject, signature, etc. In addition the status of the message may be written (e.g., "received", "seen", "replied", "sent", "forwarded", etc....).
With messages, one can send (forward) them, reply to them, define templates, delete them, and empty trash...
The present virtual mobile phone has a "Call" button, which enables the user to make phone calls from his/her computer which, in this case must be equipped with a microphone and speakers.
Referring to Fig. 3, the parts of modules stored on the server 14 include a www.page generator 28 which generates the www.pages of Fig. 2. A message receiver 29 receives messages from the www.pagie after they have been written by a user of computer 12 and stores them in a file storage area 32. An SMS
message sender and receiver 30 takes a message from the file storage area 32, converts it into SMS message format and sends it to the mobile phone 16. The SMS message sender and receiver 30 also receives SMS messages from the mobile phone 16 and converts if from SMS format to file format and stores it in the file storage area 32. When the www.pag_e generator 28 receives a request from the computer 12 it generates a www.pag_e with updated messages and sends this www.page back to the computer 12.
By this patent, the user can send SMS messages from the computer, receive messages to the computer and store them in boxes.
