Chapter 3 CiscoIPPhone XML Objects
XML Object Definitions
During text entry, Cisco Unified IP Phones display softkeys to assist users with text entry. Users can
navigate between fields with the vertical scroll button that is used to navigate menus, and so on.
CiscoIPPhoneDirectory
The phone originally incorporated the CiscoIPPhoneDirectory XML object to support the Directory
operation of Cisco Unified IP Phones, but it is available for your development purposes also. Figure 3-2
shows how an XML
CiscoIPPhoneDirectory object displays on the phone.

of
uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters.

a
cceptable input includes numbers, #, and *.
N Numeric—enter numbers as the only acceptable input.

U Uppercase—enter uppercase letters as the only acceptable input.
L Lowercase—enter lowercase letters as the only acceptable input.

InputFlag field to
use plain ASCII as the input type and to mask the input as a
password by using an asterisk (*).
