<meta>

Description

Specifies general information about the VoiceXML document rather than the document's content. The <meta> element can specify a property of the document as a whole, or it can specify HTTP response headers.

Note: A <meta> element exists as well for SSML content (see SSML <meta>), and for grammars.

Syntax


<meta
    name="string"
    http-equiv="string"
    content="string"/>

Attributes

Attribute	Description
name	The name of the meta-data property. Exactly one of name or http-equiv must be specified.
http-equiv	The name of an HTTP response header. Not currently supported. Exactly one of name or http-equiv must be specified.
content	The value of the meta-data property. Required.

Attribute Notes

An error.badfetch is thrown if both name and http-equiv are specified.

Meta-data Properties

Name	Description
application	Defines the name of the application for logging and billing purposes.
callrequest Not currently supported on the IP Media Server platform.	If this property is set to `decline` in the first page being fetched when a call is made, the call will not be answered. Otherwise, the call will be answered. If this property is set in any subsequent pages fetched during the call, it will have no effect. Note: If you are calling into a Developer platform with an extension, setting this property to `decline` in the first page of the associated application will have no effect, since a VoiceXML page that collects the extension input is always fetched first. This property can also be used to support call redirection. For example: `<meta name="callrequest" content="redirect;phone://4167360905"/>`
maintainer Not currently supported on the IP Media Server platform.	The email address that log files will be sent to (if applicable). Note that when the Dialogic IP Media Server is shut down, all unsent maintainer emails will be discarded.
