Or, in the example below,  wait before dialing?

exten => s,1,Dial(ZAP/g1/${ARG1},360) ; ARG1 is the number to be dialed

If you are using analog ports, yes.  Dial(Zap/g1/ww15551212).

exten => s,1,Dial(ZAP/g1/ww${ARG1},360) should work then?

  Why in the world would you ever want to do that anyway?

Because there is no dial tone detection on the FXO card or module
As you have seen on the list, many complaints about misdialing

Yes, a common problem. Put a w in just like above. This has been discussed on the mailing lists many times.

" Show application dial" does make reference to using w AFTER the initial number is called. Others indicate that that doesn't work correctly either. But the example above does NOT cause the FXO to go off hook, wait for 1 second ( using ww) or more with more "w" THEN begin to dial, and nothing in "show application dial" indicates any way to do so. THAT is what is needed to correct misdialings if a PSTN CO is slow to return dialtone. I have been unable to get it to pause before dialing using HEAD from 2/24/05.
Anyone have different experiences, and if so, with what flavor of Asterisk?
