VoiceXML combines the power of the Internet with the flexibility of voice, using the telephone as the access point to the Internet. XML is replacing HMTL as the state of the art for enabling customers and employees to access business over the Internet. VoiceXML enables companies to provide the same information via the phone with minimal additional development. This book shows how to build phone-enabled Web sites with VoiceXML. For Web developers it explains the essentials of telephony, and for telecom experts it explains the essentials of the Web.

If you answered "Yes" to any of these questions, then this book is for you. Bob Edgar explains everything you need to understand and use VoiceXML, the "HTML for telephony" which is revolutionizing the industry.
Not a telephony expert? Not a Web expert? No problem, Bob covers all the background you'll need: how the Web works, how telecom and computer telephony work, XML, voice browsers and more. Once you've understood the background, Bob starts with a "Hello, World" application--a VoiceXML page which answers the phone and speaks to you--then leads you step by step through all the features of VoiceXML, including VoiceXML 2.0.
