Ya.. I understood VoiceXML but can anybody tell me, how will a caller (which is calling from PSTN) get interected with this HTTP protocol's voice browser ?? Please tell me what will need to be done in actual scenario..

Like i have put the VXML file on my webserver say, http://www.gatescorp.com/VXML/Sample.vxml and put a simple prompt on that.. But what will i need to do to hear that prompt ??? Will i have to dial any number to interect with it or just open that URL from internet exploerer ?? Please tell me if anybody knows...


 * You need a voice browser. Same concept as a web browser except it parses and plays back you code information.  Genesys (previously Telera) offers a developers account to utilize their voice broswer at http://codecenter.telera.com/. Kitsonk 02:36, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Yes you need voice browser for hearing the prompt but it is different from web browser in the sense that every end user does not need to keep the browser with them.

This browser along with voice server and web server is installed by the service provider. Voice browser receives the phone calls on some particular phone numbers you assign.

Does the opening remarks on this article sound like a proud mother describing her son to anyone else here? It reads more like an ad pamphlet than an encyclopidic article. Citations would go a long way to calm these concerns, this should be easy as it is an internet protocal which generally have technical documents available for them. I am addinng it to my watchlist, and I may be paying attention to it later, time permitting. HighInBC 04:40, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * First paragraph seems fine, second is a bit puffy. - Jmabel | Talk 19:41, 9 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Okay, I did a rewrite on a couple of paragraphs. Tried to keep the content the same but removed some of the "marketing-speak". I think this article could be expanded a bit with more technical information if anyone has the will ... Dave w74 23:28, 10 October 2006 (UTC)


 * It reads much better, thanks! I agree it would be nice to expand on this.  Proud Mother 07:02, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

VoiceXML browser download links
I have not edited this page before. I see you said you were getting a lot of link spamming. That is obviously unwanted.

Do you think it would be useful/worthwhile/fair/appropriate to provide links to companies offering a download of a commercial VoiceXML browser?

I work for a VoiceXML company, and we have a page allowing users to register and then download an evaluation version of the software.

I think it might be nice, as it gives developers interested in VoiceXML an immediate way to start playing with a commercial VoiceXML browser.
 * Thanks for your suggestion. Please read WP:EL, particularly sections regarding links to sites you own/manage, links requiring registration, links to commercial websites, etc.  It points out what should and should not be linked.  Short answer is no, this type of link is not appropriate for the reasons listed in the guidelines.  It would be better to add your site to the  dmoz which is the more appropriate directory (WP is not a directory).  As a note, you should sign your messages here using 4 tildes.

OK I will put it in DMOZ 87.198.5.178 18:35, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

VoiceXML Developers Guide
I would like to propose adding an external link to vxml.org (VoiceXML Developers Guide). The site include tutorials, sample code, and a VoiceXML language reference and I have found it to be quite helpful as I worked to learn VoiceXML. The site helps developers learn how to use VoiceXML on any platform that supports the VoiceXML 2.x standard. Where required, some lessons do make use of Voxeo's free VoiceXML platform hosting or download. Most of the content is platform neutral however, and is regularly annotated by many other VoiceXML developers. Thoughts?


 * Thanks for the suggestion. However, to maintain neutrality, WP recommends against links to commercial websites WP:EL.  WP is not a directory of links WP:NOT.  It would be better to place your link on DMOZ as suggested by WP and mentioned above to another user.  Calltech 14:11, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
