[FX.php List] Can't Connect

[Jason H.Awbrey]

Tim,

Can you submit general XML queries against the data source? If you  
can't do that you're not going to get a response from FX.php either.  
Try submitting a url like such:

http://username:password@server_ip:port/fmi/xml/FMPXMLRESULT.xml?- 
db=Lot%20Number%20Tracking.fp7&- 
lay=WebScanner&CalicoProductNumber=<product_value>&BarCode=<lot_value>&S 
caner=<scanner_value>&-script=Lookup%20Empty%20Barcodes&-new

If you get a valid XML result you know that at leats FMSA is working.  
If you get an error you've got something to fix. It will at least  
provide you with a place to start.

I would HIGHLY recommend NOT using spaces in anything you are  
referencing from the web (db names, field names, script names, value  
list names, etc). It will typically work fine but there will be that  
one time when it won't and you won't be able to figure out why.

Cheers,
Jason
