[FX.php List] [FM API] PHP and API version issues...

[Joel Shapiro]

Hey Steve

What I remember is that the API itself changed from FMS9 to FMS10.   
The GetValueList() function was "deprecated" in the FMS10 version,  
although in fact it breaks in some circumstances.  More recently I  
found an issue with one of the ways of calling FM scripts (FMS10).   
Answers I found online were that the API was using deprecated PHP and  
that a "@" needed to be removed from an API function in order for it  
not to return a PHP Warning.  (Let me know if you want more info on  
either of these and I'll see what I've got.)

I haven't heard anything specific re: 'safe' PHP versions, and I  
haven't done anything yet w/ FMS11.

Best,
-Joel
