[FX.php List] "Portal" within a "Portal"?

Thu Jul 14 09:09:53 MDT 2005

if i understand right, the portal returns multiple data points into the 
data array and you don't think it should. the problem is that FMP can't 
read your mind and defaults to sending everything in the portal.

confusing the issue is multiple find requests in a portal.

my advice, do your find request directly on the join file.
