[FX.php List] Problem w/ calling script from PHP

Does the second file have the same privilege set(s) user(s) as the first file.

For any FileMaker file to "talk" to another file, they need to have the correct privileges.... this goes for web "users" too.  ie if logged in as "webUser" then the second file also has to have "webUser" as a user.

Has caught me out on occasion too.

Hope this helps.

Regards

Michael Ward
