Receiving Postback prior to receiving completed input

I had the following Voice XML,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<vxml version="2.0">
<property name="inputmodes" value="dtmf" />
<form id="listenToLoad">
<field name="txtPurchaseOrder" type="digits">
<prompt bargein="false">Enter the purchase order number for the load you want to listen to.</prompt>
</field>
<filled mode="all">
<submit next="http://130.100.3.55/ListenToLoad.aspx" method="post" />
</filled>
</form>
</vxml>

When I tried to enter the following digits 2342166, the page was posted back to me with txtPurchaseOrder = 23.

Not knowing what was going on, I changed the voice Xml to,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><vxml version="2.0">
<property name="inputmodes" value="dtmf" />
<form id="listenToLoad">
<field name="txtPurchaseOrder" type="digits?length=7>
<prompt timeout="10000" bargein="true">Enter the purchase order number for the load you want to listen to.</prompt>
</field>
<filled mode="all">
<submit next="http://130.100.3.55/ListenToLoad.aspx" method="post"></submit>
</filled>
</form>
</vxml>

Everything worked fine, but the problem is the purchase order isn't alway 7 digist long. So I changed the voice xml to,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><vxml version="2.0">
<property name="inputmodes" value="dtmf" />
<form id="listenToLoad">
<field name="txtPurchaseOrder" type="digits?minlength=7;maxlength=10">
<prompt timeout="10000" bargein="true">Enter the purchase order number for the load you want to listen to.</prompt>
</field>
<filled mode="all">
<submit next="http://130.100.3.55/ListenToLoad.aspx" method="post"></submit>
</filled>
</form>
</vxml>

The following was the result

Please help me solve this because I have a lot more fields in my application that take a variable number of digists.

IVR code fix for problem with inputting of digits

Posted: Thu May 14, 2009 1:44 pm

Hi,

Looking at the IVR call log, it appears as though the user did not enter the correct number of digits as log shows only 1-digit or 2-digit entries.

This could possibly indicate that the user wasn't entering the digits quickly enough. We have taken your IVR code and revised it in the following way and have tested that it works for us. Please note the IVR tag, <property>, and how the IVR tag, <field>, are implemented below.

digitsinput.php:

Code: Select all

<?php
header("Content-type: text/xml");
echo("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n");
?>
<vxml version="2.0">
<property name="inputmodes" value="dtmf" />
<property name="termtimeout" value="3s"/>
<property name="interdigittimeout" value="3s"/>
<form id="listenToLoad">
<field name="txtPurchaseOrder" type="digits?minlength=7;maxlength=10">
<prompt timeout="10000" bargein="true">Enter the purchase order number for the load you want to listen to.</prompt>
<filled>
<submit next="digitsplayback.php" method="post" namelist="txtPurchaseOrder"></submit>
</filled>
</field>
</form>
</vxml>
digitsplayback.php:

Code: Select all

<?php
header("Content-type: text/xml");
echo("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n");
$txtPurchaseOrder = $_POST['txtPurchaseOrder'];
?>
<vxml version="2.0">
<form>
	<block>
		<?php 
                echo "<prompt>
                You entered $txtPurchaseOrder.
                </prompt>"
		?>
	</block>
</form>
</vxml>
Please let us know if you experience any further IVR issues with this.

Regards,
Plum Support

I would agree if I weren't the user and know that I was entering the digits at the same rate I do everywhere else in the application. The good new is adding the <property name="interdigittimeout" value="3s" />
<property name="termtimeout" value="3s" /> elements seems to fix the problem.

Thanks!
