Hi Josh

If Duration is a calc field in FMP, then you're not POSTing it with  
the submission, are you?  I think you're looking for the FM field to  
return, off of the layout and from your FMEdit or FMNew results.

Also, you could just calculate Duration within PHP based on the  
POSTed start and end times.

HTH,
