Use Gotoif instead of Goto. Check Gotoif usage. This will give you enough features to fork the calls after the extension is re-entered
Seshu -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adam Robins Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2005 3:11 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Invalid extension handling When an outside callers hits my system, I play them a welcome message and ask that they enter an extension. If the extension is invalid, it tells them so, and asks them to try again. The relevant logic for this is: [extensions] exten => _2XXX,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}) ; exten => i,1,Playback,invalid exten => i,n,Goto(incoming,_NXXNXXXXXX,1) ; [incoming] exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,1,Answer exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,n,Background(welcome) ; play welcome msg & ask for extension exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,n,WaitExten(5) ; Wait for extension This works fine, however, there is one special case that I would like to handle differently. If the caller inadvertently presses the # key following the extension, I would like to discard the # and then send the call back onto the stack. I know how to strip the #, but I can't find another command like WaitExten that will reprocess the call as new. Any ideas are appreciated.
