The menu Element - <menu>
Description:
A menu is a convenient syntactic shorthand for a form containing a single anonymous field that
prompts the user to make a choice and transitions to different places based on that choice. Like
a regular form, it can have its grammar scoped such that it is active when the user is executing
another dialog.
Example:
<menu>
<prompt>Welcome home. Say one of: <enumerate/></prompt>
<choice next="http://www.sports.example/vxml/start.vxml">
Sports </choice>
<choice next="http://www.weather.example/intro.vxml">
Weather </choice>
<choice next="http://www.stargazer.example/voice/astronews.vxml">
Stargazer astrophysics news </choice>
<noinput>Please say one of <enumerate/></noinput>
</menu>
