$socket = fsockopen("hostname or ip","port", $errornum, $errorstr);
if(!$socket) {
print "Couldn't open socket. Error #" . $errornum . ": " . $errorstr;
} else {
fputs($socket, "Action: Login\r\n");
fputs($socket, "UserName: username\r\n");
fputs($socket, "Secret: password\r\n\r\n");

$login = NULL;

while(true)
{
while(!feof($socket) )
{

$readbuf = "";
$resp = fread($socket,8192);
$readbuf .= $resp;
$allevents = split("\r\n\r\n",$readbuf);
foreach($allevents as $event)
{
$eventdetails = split("\r\n",$event);
$event_assoc = "";
foreach($eventdetails as $value ) {
$namevalue = split(": ",$value);
$event_assoc[$namevalue[0]] = $namevalue[1];
}
switch( $event_assoc['Event'] )
{
case 'Link': // Calls getting bridged

if( !empty($event_assoc['Event']) )
