[FX.php List] Newbie Question

Sun Sep 25 12:10:30 MDT 2005

Hi Ahmad,

You must be retrieving a large amount of data with FX.php. Your  
browser is timing out before it can process all the stuff coming into  
it. In this case, the FX error is a red herring. If you're retrieving  
lots of data, make sure the layout specified in SetDBData is limited  
to just the fields necessary. If you're still having trouble with the  
timeout, you can also use PHP's built-in function...

set_time_limit(integer)

...where integer = an amount of time in seconds. Details may be found  
at this site: <http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.set-time-limit.php>

Before you just extend the patience of the web browser to accommodate  
the large data retrieval, you might want to consider the patience of  
your users. Perhaps it would be better to retrieve the data in  
sections or by category rather than everything in the world using  
FMFindall. For example, retrieving names (as in your sample) in  
groups: A-F, G-L, M-R ....

Hope this helps,
Dale
