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.
