[FX.php List] Where are my value lists...?

[Joel Shapiro]

Hi Steve

Yep, FMView() is necessary to pull value lists.

 From FXDataFormat.pdf:

___$ReturnedData['valueLists']___________________
print_r($ReturnedData['valueLists']);
print_r($ReturnedData['valueLists']['myValueList']);
echo($ReturnedData['valueLists']['myValueList'][0]);
When an FMView() action is called, any value lists on the layout  
specified will be returned in this element
of the returned data array.  Please note that this element is only  
returned from an FMView() action; you
may wish to perform a separate FMView() to pull the value lists for  
the layout in your current search
request.  The 'valueLists' section contains two sub-arrays.  The  
first sub-array uses the value lists' names
as indexes, while the second is numbered from zero.  A typical use  
might be to step through the desired
value list using php's foreach() contruct.  Please see FXExamples.php  
for a complex demonstration of how
the contents of this element can be used.
