[FX.php List] Is anyone using FX.php with FMStudio

[Jose Sevoya]

Hi David,

I noticed some very similar code patterns while working on FMStudio.
It seems that the categories of queries are separated to allow
chaining between recordsets and queries such as a lookup for a record
id using a recordset and passing it into an edit. It does seem that
the sections of the recordset are interweaved - but it might be a
dreamweaver limitation since I have seen similar code while palying
around with the MySQL extensions for Dreamweaver.

On a happier note, FMStudio has been great with multiple queries in my
case - I usually pass a variable through the URL such as a user id and
get the main record, and then use it to get related records -
therefore I have been more than happy with the functionality FMStudio
offers and the code it writes has been very clean. With the help of
php.net I have managed to go from a Dreamweaver drag-and-drop monkey
to a beginner PHP programmer.

Thanks Stephen!

Best,
Jose
