asterisk users - Jan 2013 - Execute a script outside Asterisk

Hello,

at certain time inside my dialplan I would like to have an external php 
script executed. Asterisk should not wait for the end of the execution 
to continue with the rest of the dialplan. It should just start the 
execution of the php script (which inserts an entry into a remote mysql-DB).

What is the best way to work ?

- with AGI inside the dialplan ?
- with the system()-command inside the dialplan ?



Kind regards,
Jonas.

I would vote for system() on two accounts.  #1 AGI requires more overhead
and protocol #2 you are not expecting a result to return to the dialplan.
