limit is for inbound calls
you cannot call it after you already made the call.
The correct approach would be to not make the call at all.
you could maybe use the limit FSAPI interface with apiExecute to check if the limit was exceeded and
then not bother to place the call to begin with.
otherwise it's sort of like putting a prisoner in the electric chair then giving him his trial.

I am calling "Originate" from JS. I tried to call "limit_hash" from JS
but with no success. I did it like that:
lmt = apiExecute("limit_hash", dialed_ext + " " + dialed_ext + " 1");
I could't find any documentation on that.
can u help ?
Thanks
Eli
