<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=1 color=black face=Verdana><span
style='font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Verdana;color:black'>This is my first
attempt to write software of any sort. What I am trying to is to use a .<span
class=SpellE>php</span> page to query asterisk Manager and get the <span
class=SpellE>ExtensionState</span> for each particular extension. Then
when it has the answer it outputs an XML file for use as the directory on a
Cisco 7960 phone. What I am thinking is that when the user hits the
directory button to <span class=SpellE>veiw</span> the directory that is at
this URL it will show the directory, but based on <span class=SpellE>teh</span>
<span class=SpellE>extenstion</span> status it will show whether that person in
available or not. It should work pretty <span class=GramE>good</span> as
a <span class=SpellE>blf</span>, you just have to request the directory again
to get an updated status of everyone that you are monitoring.<br>
<br>
The problem I am having is that the only status that I can seem to get from <span
class=SpellE>ExtensionState</span> is -1. No matter what I do. I
don't know why this is happening and I have fiddled with the context how the
extension is listed, however I still <span class=SpellE>jsut</span> get -1 as a
response.<br>
<br>
It is my understanding that these are the possible <span class=GramE>status's</span>:<br>
<br>
-1 Channel is unavailable or does not exit<br>
0 Channel is down and available <br>
1 Channel is down, but reserved <br>
2 Channel is off hook <br>
3 Digits (or equivalent) have been dialed <br>
4 Line is ringing <br>
5 Remote end is ringing <br>
6 Line is up <br>
7 Line is busy<br>
<br>
Here is my <span class=SpellE>php</span> code that logs into the manager <span
class=SpellE><span class=GramE>api</span></span> and then runs through an array
of my extensions and names and returns the XML file with name field updated
with the status:<br>
<br>
I put some comments in with //'s so that you can get an idea as to what I was
thinking here. Most of this code I copied and pasted from php.net
and other places on asterisk lists.<br>

Any input you may have would be fabulous. <span class=GramE>please</span>
