    text
    copied!<p>I am having issues getting the voice browser to repeat my field value as a series of numbers rather than a large multi-digit number. For example, my field will collect the input using type 'digits' or 'numbers' - in this case it was a transfer extension. In the filled portion I have the collected value repeated back. Instead of hearing extension number 2345 spoken as '2-3-4-5' it is spoken as 'two thousand three hundred fourty five'.</p> <p>How can I have the value repeated sequentially? I tried specifying a 'say-as' tag, but to no avail. Below is the code I attempted this with:</p> <pre><code>&lt;field name="extension" type="digits?length=4"&gt; &lt;prompt bargein="false"&gt; Please dial in or say the extension of the &lt;value expr="application.extensionValues" /&gt; you are trying to reach. &lt;/prompt&gt; &lt;grammar type="application/x-nuance-gsl"&gt; [ dtmf-1 dtmf-2 dtmf-3 dtmf-4 dtmf-5 dtmf-6 dtmf-7 dtmf-8 dtmf-9 dtmf-0 ] &lt;/grammar&gt; &lt;grammar type="application/x-nuance-gsl"&gt; [ one two three four five six seven eight nine ] &lt;/grammar&gt; &lt;/field&gt; &lt;filled&gt; &lt;prompt&gt; I received extension number &lt;say-as interpret-as="vxml:number"&gt;&lt;value expr="extension"/&gt;&lt;/say-as&gt;. Transfering you now. &lt;/prompt&gt; &lt;/filled&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>EDIT 1</strong></p> <p>Yes the platform I am using is the "BeVocal Cafe" development enviornment. I am pointing it's IVR to a URI where I have the vxml scripts stored.</p> <p>Unfortunately your suggestion did not work for me. I attempted to change the interpret-as value to "telephone" and the interpreter did not understand and errored out. I attempted to use "characters" which looked more like what I wanted and while there was no error, the interpreter logs stated that the interpret-as value was 'unknown'</p>
