[FX.php List] Best Practice

[Tom Sepper]

Not to hijack this, but ggt got me thinking.

Since any field to be used with FX.php has to be on the layout specified
in the FX instance, that begs the question..  Does placing all fields a
table on the layout slow down the FX.php >> WPE/XML >> FM query?

Hmm sounds like your client only needs one field pr layout.

See if that improves speed, to me the solution sounds silly...

There are template engines like smarty, or you could just make a
couple of php/html templates yourself...
