Like rupa said, use anti-action? Remember FreeSWITCH XML dialplan is not a programming language it's a pre-processor routing markup
Se potential use of anti-action below: <extension name="checkdigits"> <condition field="destination_number" expression="^checkdigits$"/> <!--The next condition should be true if the variable $digits is not set/undefined --> <condition field="${digits}" expression="^[^.+]$" /> -- <action application="read" data="1 10 ivr/ivr-hello.wav digits 10000 #"/> <action application="phrase" data="spell,${digits}"/> <action application="transfer" data="checkdigits digits XML features"/> <anti-action application="set" data="not_true=true"/> </condition> <condition field="${pincode}" expression="^${some_variable}$"> < SOME ACTIONS HERE > </condition> </extension> On Wed, Oct 21, 2009 at 5:51 PM, Mark Campbell-Smith < mcampbellsm...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks Guys for your suggestions!
