Hi,

I'd like to set a channel variable and use it in a time condition like this:

<condition mon="${rmon}" >

with rmon=1-12 (just to be sure condition is verified).

I can't find out why it doesn't work.

- Using <action application="info"/> , I can see variable is set [1-12]
- I've tried also <condition mon="${rmon}" inline="true">

- Using directly <condition mon="1-12" > it works

Like Jeff says, be sure that the ${rmon} variable is getting set with the inline="true" attribute. Note: You don't use inline="true" in a condition tag.

Try this:
<condition field="${rmon}" expression="^[12]?[0-9]$">

You need to use a regular expression when checking the value of a channel variable and you need to wrap the the chan var in ${}. Check this section of the XML Dialplan wiki page:

Let us know how it goes!
