Hello, Asterisk version 1.4.21.1
Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong or why the Read application does not accept the # key as input? My read statement: exten => s,n,Read(uchoice|thankyouforcalling|3||1|1); In the prompt thankyouforcalling it says press pound for a company directory along with some press this digit for blah blah. If the caller presses # the read applications exits and says that the user entered nothing. Really strange that the app hears the DTMF, since it stops the prompt, but does nothing with it. Is it because Read exits with a # terminated string so it sees ## and just ignores it? If this is the case then maybe Background is the answer. But I am unable to get Background to accept more than a single digit and I need to be able to grab up to 3 digits or the # key. My background statement: exten => s,n,Background(thankyouforcalling|m||macro-jm-closed) I have tried this wityh and with out the m option, same results. Both of these are run in a macro. Thank you for any help.
