hi<br>
<br>
thank you very much for your input<br>
i can say for me that i realy tried hard to use the event socket library,<br>
but untill now i can't use it like i used all the agi scripts or even mod_perl now.<br>
<br>
what i do most - in examples, if the server get's an incomming call<br>
<br>
- find the right user for the number (not that easy because of did in austria),<br>
from database or file<br>
- build the right dial string for the bridge application (here i miss all the php<br>
string functions most)<br>
- unsing mod_php functions like setVariable, getVariable, answer, transfer, sleep<br>
(i don't see how to do this with the php esl)<br>
- or i check if the number is part of a conferencing product and build the right<br>
conference setup<br>
<br>
i think this would also be possible with lua and luasql, but i developed years with<br>
phpagi und i'm very used to php in every kind of scripting or how-to-get-a-solution<br>
situation (since over 10 years now).<br>
<br>
for me in our setup it's also the highest goal to get the servers mostly independent<br>
of each other. i think nobody of our costumers should be unreachable because a central<br>
scripting/event server or also database server has gone away (as developers this happens<br>
more often as we would like it to :-))<br>
<br>
do not get me wrong, freeswitch is very powerfull and in the near future it will replace<br>
nearly all of our asterisk servers.<br>
<br>
in combination with php the freeswitch plattform would be heaven for me<br>
<br>
i also thought Brian Fertig has some source written (as posted on <a href="http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_php" target="_blank">http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_php</a>),<br>
in combination of the mod_python rewrite (page was last modified in june 2007).<br>
