On a Drupal site, when a form submission is done. I need to trigger a SMS. I am unable to edit the form submit code. Please let me know how to add a function to webform submit button. So that on SUBMIT button click the SMS function get executed as well the form data goes to the database.

Your mileage will vary, but it's the same as adding submit handlers to any form:
function MYMODULE_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
if ($form_id == 'foo') {
$form['actions']['submit']['#submit'][] = 'MYMODULE_some_function';
}
}
function MYMODULE_some_function($form, &$form_state) {
// Do something...
}
See hook_form_alter() for full details.

But the problem with MYMODULE_form_alter function is the submissions will not get stored in the database.– user7048Commented Feb 11, 2014 at 16:19

Sorry I don't understand - you're adding an extra submit handler, you're not replacing the existing one(s). Is that what you meant?– Clive ♦Commented Feb 11, 2014 at 16:20

yes exactly.. on submit click i want both functions. Default form submit action as well as additional functionality of sending a SMS– user7048Commented Feb 11, 2014 at 16:23

Yep, that's exactly what the above code does. Always best to check whether something works first before guessing that it won't– Clive ♦Commented Feb 11, 2014 at 16:23

1That would probably refer to the JS
alter()function (PHP doesn't have a namesake). Good luck getting it sorted anyway– Clive ♦Commented Feb 11, 2014 at 16:31
