[FX.php List] Passing Parameters for Perform Script Step

[Anders Monsen]

By trigger I mean do you get it to run in FMP from PHP using ...? You 
mentioned header(), so would that be an option?

header( "Location: FMP://192.168.10.0/filename.fmp12?script=scriptname" 
);  // per FMI example
exit;

Another trigger would be a hyperlink, I suppose.
