You can display as many as you like ­ it¹s just that if you leave the
$groupSize variable empty, then it will default to FM¹s in-built 25-record
limit. Perhaps FX has a default value for $groupSize of 50, which gets
passed to FM in the absence of any other value. Either way, it¹s usually
best to control it yourself by stipulating a number, and 50 is about the
maximum you¹d usually consider, even for a simple table display of one line
per record. For a long-defunct personal project, I used to set $groupSize to
1000, and displayed them all in a table on the same page.
