[FX.php List] Accessing a php file residing on an external server

[Troy Meyers]

Jonathan,

Gee, also, if it's specifed as http:, then the page will be returned (or try to be returned) as HTML. If this were to work, I'd expect it to have to be afp: or something like that to get the file contents instead of its rendering.
