daniel,

thanks for the explanation.  i could not find this information in "SIP
Router Pseudo-Variables" document.  

in my case, i was assigning $domain a value, so no errors would have
been produced anyway.

perhaps it would be a good idea if script writer could choose the used
avp mode ($avp(name) or $name) and then errors would be reported if the
mode is not followed.
