A method of processing multi-media service requests received at a
multi-media services provider computer system, including a processor
coupled to a media gateway controller and to a media server. The method
includes receiving a message from a SIP INVITE-enabled communication
device at the media gateway controller. The message is processed at the
media gateway controller and at the processor for generating an
instruction message with unique indicators, which is communicated to the
media server in a SIP INVITE format. The media server processes the
instruction message to provide media services and collect
user-information from the communication device. The media server
processes the user-information and generates a first message in an HTTP
form POST format with unique indicators, which includes the
user-information and which can be processed at the processor. In this
manner, the multi-media services provider computer system is compatible
with the SIP INVITE-enabled device.
