|I've hacked the YAC sourcecode in the past couple of days - 
|the listener  will accept a URL as an alternative to callerID 
|info, and launch the URL on the client PC. This is fed from a 
|simple AGI, which constructs the target URL based on the 
|callerid, and looks up where to send the alert (in MySQL for 
|want of somewhere better) based on the called extension.
|
|It's not as technologically advanced as the Javascript 
|solutions being discussed, but it has the advantage of being a 
|'pull on demand' model
|- no polling or pre-loading of a holding page etc.
