My iPhone died. Is there anyway to text from an computer?

I accidentally left my charger at my house when I went on vacation, I did not realize this until my phone battery was 20%. The roads are bad so I can't go out and purchase one, so is there a way I can view and send messages off my computer?

Emails yes, texts no

You can text via your computer by going to Textnow.com and opening an account. They'll give you a personal phone number with any area code you choose and let you text any number. It's a very convenient and helpful website, check it out!

There are many texting programs, some with almost "universal" capabilities, available for desktop/laptop computers. They were used BEFORE there WAS an iPhone! All you need in addition is an Internet connection and the ability to connect through that to the required destination.
Your iPhone IS a computer as well as a phone!
Many are available free on line.
