GotoIfTime() was created specifically because there were so many people who were having problems with the include syntax. It has exactly the same format (even uses the same internal code), but the mode is active (if the current time is X, go here) instead of passive (if the current time is X, change the effective context to include Y). It's arguable that GotoIfTime() makes the dialplan logic more clear and should give the dialplan programmer more control than with include syntax. -- Tilghman _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
