applications server. When the user selects one of the services, the service emits
XML tags to the same phone according to the design behavior of the service.
XML tags for menu display, item selection, graphics display, and character
display are available. Customers may create HTML/XML services that are
accessible to pixel-based Cisco IP Phone displays.
Note
The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) Application
Programming Interface (API) is available for end-user application
development. The description of this API is documented in Cisco IP
Phone Services Application Development Note, which is available
for download from CCO at
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/sw_ap_to/
under the category “Third-Party Application Development Guides.”
Assistance to resolve bugs in the API is available through TAC.
Assistance for application development is not available through
TAC. Applications development assistance will be made available in
the near-term through a specifically tasked help desk. Until that help
desk is available, application development support is not available
for the XML API.
Corporate Directory Dialing from Cisco IP Phones
The Cisco IP Phone 7940 and Cisco IP Phone 7960 display a menu of directories
when a user presses directories. When the user selects Corporate Directory from
the menu, the phone presents the option of specifying characters to find the
destination user’s first name, last name, or directory number. The user may enter
any number of characters in any of these fields, then press Search. An HTTP
request goes to an HTML service, which queries the embedded
Cisco CallManager directory. The HTML service then delivers, through XML
tags, the complete listing of matched user entries to the phone’s display. The user
may then scroll to select the destination entry and press Dial to initiate the dial
sequence to that destination.
