asterisk users - Mar 2003 - Interfacing with Asterisk from PHP

Hi All,

I am wanting to write a PHP Web Application that interfaces with the Asterisk
PBX. Is this possible? Is there any SDK or API that anyone has written to do
this?

Examples of what I want to do:

Dial a number from a web application and transfer it to a specific extension...
Report on a Web Site that status of all channels on the PBX. For instance, to
create a receptionist console like existing commercial PBX's.

Any help would really be appreciated,

Warren Bird.

do you mean like gastman?

Look at the sample.call file in the asterisk source. You can create a
simple text file to make the call.

gastman does what you want. A html based web page would not be useful as
a console. You would probably have to upgrade to java or some other
webbased technology. Just try gastman, and if you need it on windows,
maybe you could help make it a bit more stable.
