            $parameters = "username=$username&api_password=$api_password&sender=$sender&to=$mobile&message=$message&priority=$priority";


            if ($method == "POST") {
                $opts = array(
                    'http' => array(
                        'method' => "$method",
                        'content' => "$parameters",

        }//third if

Answer 1

Probably your page exeeded the max execution time. Put following code on top of page and try:

ini_set("memory_limit","128M"); 
//ini_set("memory_limit","256M"); 
//this sets it unlimited
ini_set("max_execution_time",0); 

Answer 2

Add this on the top of your PHP Script

<?php
set_time_limit(0);
