[Asterisk-Users] CALLERIDNUM::3 do not working on 1.2.1

[Trevor G. Hammonds]

You are using incorrect syntax.  Notice where the close bracket is placed,
using your examples:

${CALLERIDNUM:3} erase first 3 digits
${CALLERIDNUM::3} returns first 3 digits
${CALLERIDNUM:3:3} should erase first 3 digits and return next 3 digits
