[FX.php List] code help

[Gary Redmond]

Jonathan,

I'm really new to PHP but i'll give it a go, infact I've never written a 
php script before.

Yep previous problem is solved, in the web publishing engine for the 
option to specify the location of the filemaker server I used a hostname 
and all worked fine when I used the ip address here - not sure why 
really strange cause the hostname definetly maps to the ip address.
