[Freeswitch-users] IVR menu ending with #

Hi All, I have created a IVR menu where in the digits is ended with #, could anyone point me why a menu with ending digits (e.g. 12345#) doesn't work? <entry action="menu-exec-app" digits="/^(\d{5})#$/" param="transfer $1 XML default"/> Does Freeswitch IVR doesn't support # in digits? Thanks, Sheeju
