[asterisk-users] .call file

[Paul]

I'm going to top post in this situation.

Kevin - Commands that operate on the channel variables won't help if we
are using a call file. We will have a new channel.

This syntax works with asterisk 1.2.x for me:

Application: AGI
Data: say_it.php|call_status_message

I have done other things where a bunch of parameters are stored in
postgres or mysql and the only parameter I pass via the call file is the
record key. The php script receives the key as a parameter and gets
everything else from the db. Something like this:

Application: AGI
Data: inform.php|68456943
