[FX.php List] Using Value Lists?

[Andy Gaunt]

Hi Edward,

What you need on your page is an FMView query. This is the only way  
to get value lists out of FileMaker. Make sure the value list is used  
by a field on the layout.

Once you have the FMView you can reference your value list using a  
foreach loop to put the values into a list or series of checkboxes.

foreach ($queryResult['valueLists']['valuelistname'] as $key =>  
$value) {
//options go here for your select menu or checkbox
}

Regards

Andy
