XML Softkey for Special Characters
(User Input Screens for 9480i, 9480i CT, 6755i, 6757i, and 6757i CT only)
The IP Phone can dynamically receive a Symbol List when it receives the
AastraIPPhoneInputScreen XML object. You can have a single symbol
specified for the softkey, or you can have a list of symbols. When there is only one
symbol in the list, the symbol displays with no delay. When there is a list of
symbols, you can keep pressing the symbol softkey to cycle through the list of
symbols to select the one you want to use.
To display a list of customized symbols to the phone’s softkey, the server must
include the list of characters in the URI field of the XML softkey script. The URI
must be in the format:
SymbolList=”<Symbol List content>”
The content of the Symbol List must be encapsulated by quotes. You can specify
multiple symbols in one URI. For example, the
SymbolList="@#” specifies the
@ and # symbols
.
There are some special characters that needed to be encoded due to XML
limitations. The following table specifies these characters.
The following is an example XML URI using the characters in the table above:
SymbolList="@#&amp;&gt;&lt"
The Symbol List content for this URI is @, #, &, >, <.
Note: You can have multiple Symbol List softkeys with different lists of
symbols. The maximum length of the data in a Symbol List is 230
characters.
