[FX.php List] having some trouble with the basics

Jamie,

I know you said you have your reasons, but the first thing I'd try is  
to use port 80.

The IP address needs to be the machine where your Web Publishing  
Engine is installed, which is not always the web server (this got me  
when I first tried FX).

Are you seeing error messages? Try putting this at the end of your  
query:

echo $searchResults['errorCode'];
(change "searchResults" to match your query script).

HTH,

Bob Patin
