The code on line 2 illustrates the use of the CANCEL element to specify that when the user says “cancel”, the browser should proceed to the STEP named “traffic_menu”, instead of the default behavior, which would be to simply stop the PROMPT from playing and wait for a user response. Users can also interrupt the PROMPT by speaking valid OPTION. In this example, the user could interrupt the PROMPT and get the traffic conditions for a different city by saying “new city”.
