[FX.php List] How do we perform the equivalent of multiple find requests?

[Steve Winter]

Hi Malcolm

You can do that with the API (see http://www.mindfiresolutions.com/Compound-Find-Command-in-FileMaker-API-763.php for an example) but I don't believe that it's possible with FX.

I expect that you're going to have to perform two finds, then merge the result sets with PHP…

Cheers
Steve
