[FX.php List] About scripts

[DC]

my advice about using scripts was because of performance issues. it  
blocks access to all FMP WPE for all other requests for as long as  
the script runs. as far as performance flaws goes, there is some  
getting used to calling scripts because of the fact that multiple  
requests to the db through FX (as in not using prefind for instance)  
are not treated the same way with reference to globals - FMP global  
fields  are cleared (reset to default) each new FX request.

you're probably better off doing whatever you are trying to do in PHP  
anyway... can you spell it out and maybe someone here can give you a  
tip?
