[FX.php List] Dealing with a found set

[Dale Bengston]

Hi Bob,

I generally store the record keys of the found set "list view" in a  
session array. Then when your client clicks through to the details,  
you can use the relative position of the current detail's record key  
to display a link to the previous and next records.
