 +  * Forms the <enumerate> prompt string with its contents.
 +  * Specifies the URI to go to when the choice is selected.

 +|dtmf|This attribute is the DTMF sequence for this choice. This attribute is optional.|
 +|accept|The accept attribute overrides the setting for the accepted attribute in the <menu> element, with either exact or approximate values.  This attribute is optional and defaults to exact. * exact – use exact to define the exact phrase to be recognized. * approximate – use approximate to define an approximate recognition phrase.
