Queue Management Functions
Each of the queue management functions begins with q- and accepts two parameters.
id (required)
Specifies the ID of the queue as configured in e3config.xml. If a request specifies id=*, then the request applies to every queue defined in e3config.xml.
If the id parameter is missing or does not match the id attribute of any queue defined in e3config.xml, this function will return an error.
response-format (optional)
Specifies whether the function returns either an HTML or an XML response. The value of response-format may be xml or html, and it is not case sensitive. The default value is html. By default, the queue functions assume that their caller is a web browser and return an HTML page suitable for display. If the function specifies response-format=xml, the function returns an XML document suitable for parsing by a client program (that is, not a web browser).
