[FX.php List] FileMaker 7/8 and PHP WITHOUT FX.php?

[Elleni B Fellows]

So, I work in an environment that has both FileMaker lovers and haters. 
I had hoped our web developers would work with us and our FM databases 
to get them on the web with php. They currently use lots of php with 
MySQL. Today the lead developer told me he doesn't really want to use 
FX.php and wants us to find a way to use the XML out of FileMaker 
without the FX library. Don't ask me what his deal is... I come from the 
old CDML school of FM on the web and am just starting to get interested 
in using php instead. I had hoped we FileMaker folks could use FXForge 
to create to basics of our sites and get the "web team" folks to help 
dress them up later. Anyway, I need to meet with him next week and 
explain why I want to use FM and FXphp for our solutions. My answer 
right now would be because that's what most of the FM community is 
using! But I don't think that will be enough for him.

Thanks for any advice!

"'You know,' said Arthur, 'it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in 
a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die from 
asphyxiation in deep space that I really wish I'd listened to what my 
mother told me when I was young.' 'Why, what did she tell you?' 'I don't 
know, I didn't listen.'"
