XML Multislot Grammars

Defining a slot with multiple slots can easily be achieved by using the same methodology as we use for GSL grammars. However, the semantics for doing this in the XML format are obviously quite different. To ease the ever-popular Learning Curve, we will simply port the previously discussed GSL multislot grammar into the XML format.

MLBTeams.grxml


<?xml version= "1.0"?>

<grammar xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/06/grammar" xml:lang="en-US" root = "STANDINGS">
 
  <rule id="STANDINGS" scope="public"> 
    <one-of lang-list="en-US"> 

      <item> boston red sox
          <tag> <![CDATA[  <team "boston"> <league "american"> <division "east"> <standing "first">  ]]>  </tag> 
      </item> 

     <item>new york yankees 
          <tag> <![CDATA[  <team "New York"> <league "American"> <division "east"> <standing "last">  ]]>  </tag> 
      </item> 

      <item>toronto blue jays
          <tag> <![CDATA[  <team "Toronto"> <league "American"> <division "east"> <standing "second">  ]]>  </tag> 
     </item> 

  </one-of> 
    </rule> 

</grammar>

Utterance	Slot= 'team'	Slot= 'league'	Slot= 'division'	Slot= 'standing'
`(red sox)`	`{<team "Boston">`	`<league "American">`	`<division "east">}`	`<standing "first">}`

And what about the invoking code, you ask? Look no further:

MultiSlot.vxml


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<vxml version="2.0">

<form id="multipleslots">

  <field name="F_1">  
    <grammar src="MLBTeams.grxml" type="application/grammar-xml"/>

    <prompt>Please select a baseball team.</prompt>

    <filled>  
      <prompt>

        You selected <value expr="lastresult$.interpretation.team"/>.
        They are in <value expr="lastresult$.interpretation.standing"/> place
        in the <value expr="lastresult$.interpretation.league"/> league
        <value expr="lastresult$.interpretation.division"/>.

      </prompt>
    </filled>
  </field>

</form>
</vxml>
