[FX.php List] fmdelete returns a 1

[Chris Hansen]

William,

Something like this:

if( FX::isError( $medLangResult ) ) {
     echo "system error - please inform admin etc";
} elseif ($medLangResult->lastErrorCode != 0) {
     echo "error - please inform admin etc";
} else {
     // do non-error items
}

Basically, there are two types of potential errors: a serious system  
error (e.g. FileMaker is down, eek!), or a FileMaker error (e.g.  
improper permissions, record locked, etc.)  Both types need to be  
trapped.  Make sense?
