If you search for "header parameter" in rfc 3261 you will get a lot of examples, like this one: Contact: "Mr. Watson" <sip:[email protected]> ;q=0.7; expires=3600, "Mr. Watson" <mailto:[email protected]> ;q=0.1 I am poor at parsing the BNF and maybe it's covered in HTTP or somewhere else what the "proper way" for parameters are. That wood be interesting for now. I would just follow the example and use the equal sign. /O _______________________________________________ Sip-implementors mailing list [email protected] https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/sip-implementors
