VoiceXML Attribute
 bargein - Whether input interrupts prompt.

Tags
<prompt>

Value Description
"false" Do not allow input to interrupt.
"true" Allow input to interrupt.

Compatibility
VoiceXML 1.0 Yes, 2.0 Yes.

Description
If set to "true", user input will interrupt a prompt. If set to "false", user input will not interrupt a prompt. Bargein is typically disabled for error messages (to make sure the user doesn't continue unaware of the problem) and for paid sponsor content such as advertisements. Otherwise bargein is usually enabled since it allows an experienced user to move through the interface more quickly.
