Thanks!
With a little tweaking I was able to get it to work. Before I was
literally being returned the words "Array,Array,Array" for the print_r
statement repeated for the number of records found.
Here's the code that I ended up using to successfully pull the chart
in using the values. If anyone is interested in seeing this in action
all that's required is a simple database with fields matching the
field names. As it stands it's not a very useful chart, but it shows
how it works so it can grow from here.
<?php require_once('Connections/wine.php'); ?>
<?php
$wine_find = clone($wine);
$wine_find->layout = 'web';
$wine_findCriterions = array('wineID'=>'='.'*',);
foreach($wine_findCriterions as $key=>$value) {
$wine_find->AddDBParam($key,$value);
}
$wine_result = $wine_find->FMFind();
$wine_row = current($wine_result['data']);
$wine_row_key = key($wine_result['data']);
?>
