How to send a dial string from the computer to asterisks to call a phone?

I've been trying to figure out how to send a dial string to the asterisks server which should then handle a call to the phone with that extension. I know there are programs like X-Lite and such but I don't want to manually dial it. I want to pass a string instead. Is there any way? Any help or tip would be very much appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Call files can help you easily but AGI using php or perl is far more better

You can use AGI scripts to do this. From AGI scripts you can manage your asterisk box from any language you want

I use call files. Just read: Asterisk auto-dial out.

I made simple CGI script that called via web server creates call file (remember to use temp directory) and then moves it to /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing and Asterisk do rest of work.
