[asterisk-users] RE: Web based call control

There's a better way.  Take a look at how to do a "Find me" at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+tips+findme 
You can have the call only completed when they press a key on the receiving phone.  No voicemail will trigger that.

Subject: Web based call control

Does anyone know if it is possible to use a manager command to answer an incoming call and not consider it answered unitl it is received. Here is an example, I am deivering a call in the dialplan to a home telephone number. I don't want his voicemail to answer and I have no idea how long it will take to go to their home phone voicemail, but I don't want to deliver the call there, I want it to go to the next priority in asterisk. So I was thinking that it would be nice to build a web interface that they could have a button to answer with. This would send a manager command to the server telling it to answer the channel, any thoughts on how to do this.
