Re: [asterisk-users] OT: Accountless, free, skinnable, browser based SIP client wanted
Hi, i think the primary question here is - should it be java, activex or flash based. There are some implementations for each of there types out there. Basicaly it is a simple softphone which can get configured and accessed using javascript. So you can do the layout in html - and invoke softphone functions using javascript. I would also suggest do add a call me on my phone option for users which will have problems with the softphone... There are already some cmpanies out there which will provide such a service - take a look at http://www.mexuar.com/ for example regards, Wolfgang Pichler Am Mittwoch, den 25.03.2009, 11:23 -0700 schrieb Steve Edwards: I have a client that wants to put a phone on their web page for customers to call them via their Asterisk server. ) A keypad is needed to enter credit card details. ) Speed dial buttons like Tech Support, Sales, etc. are a requirement.

What about Yahoo messenger?

Re: [asterisk-users] OT: Accountless, free, skinnable, browser based SIP client wanted
Is your client completely committed to using a web-based softphone and requiring them to make sure they have speakers turned on and a microphone plugged in? I think it's a fair guess that if they have a CC they have a phone which makes some sort of click to call technology more attractive to me at least For example my employer: ifbyphone.com offers products that do this, though there are plenty of others that do as well.

Re: [asterisk-users] OT: Accountless, free, skinnable, browser based SIP client wanted
Since you're hosting this page and it is secured, why don't you just create 2 Gizmo accounts for each department and have the browser do a call from gizmo-a to gizmo-b? Then make your speed dial buttons do like this: 1. a-b 2. c-d 3. e-f Etc. Perhaps I'm not thinking this through enough, but that seems like a solution. -Original Message- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Steve Edwards Sent: Wednesday, March 25, 2009 1:24 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List Subject: [asterisk-users] OT: Accountless, free, skinnable,browser based SIP client wanted I have a client that wants to put a phone on their web page for customers to call them via their Asterisk server. ) A keypad is needed to enter credit card details. ) Speed dial buttons like Tech Support, Sales, etc. are a requirement.
