Hi All,
For some reason I can't get this GotoIf statement to work. Even if the name
and number are the same it jumps to line 3. I've tried with and without the
quotes around each variable.
exten => s,1,GotoIf($["${CALLERID(name)}" =
"${CALLERID(num)}"]?:3)
exten => s,2,NoOp(they are the Same)
exten => s,3,NoOp(they are different)
The wisdom of this group is much appreciated.
This is an example only. I know the code will display both NoOp lines if the
name and number is the same.
Regards
David Klaverstyn

By definition you are doing if not equal go to 3.
Gotoif($[condition]?[true]:false). Look at your CLI output and you will see
the evaluation of the condition as 1 or 0.

More than likely, the (num) has some sort of brackets around it, such as < >, or perhaps it's starting with a +. You can try to use the FILTER function on it, to strip away any additional characters that you don't want to see or try to match on. exten => s,1,GotoIf($["${CALLERID(name)}" "${FILTER(0123456789,${CALLERID(num)}}"]?:3) That is, if you're just looking for numeric callerid. If you also want to account for extra characters, you can add those to the first part of the filter. -- Thanks, --Warren Selby, dCAP http://www.SelbyTech.com <http://www.selbytech.com> -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi All, Thanks for all your suggestions. It turns out that the CID Name was sent with a space at the end of the number and that is why there was never a match.

Hi, This is exactly why it is very important and wise to attach CLI verbose logs and other traces so the real issue gets resolved quicker than making all the people figure out the possibilities.
