asterisk users - Apr 2004 - Dial Outside SIP address from AGI

Hi all,
  Is it possible to dial an OUTSIDE SIP address while inside AGI application?
For example, within extension context, I could use
[from-sip]
exten => 7723,1,Dial(SIP/897224@fwd) and this works
 
whereas when I'm inside agi app,
$AGI->exec('Dial',"SIP/897224@fwd") and this DOESN'T
work.
There some errors about invalid argument.
 
If I were to do
$AGI->exec('Dial',"SIP/PHONE1"), where PHONE1 is an phone
registered directory with Asterisk, then it works.
 
Any hints?
 
Thanks!
ron

Perl will interpret the @ symbol as referencing an array, put a backslash
before that character in your SIP address.
