Die Command FX.php

[surfincajun]

Hello,

I was wondering if there is a line of code that I can put in my solution that will either die or redirect to a can't connect to database screen if the database is not available.

I am contemplating having filemaker as the main database engine behing my websites, but If for some reason the connection can't be completed, users would be redirected to a mysql entry screen located on another server.

That will take some work, but I would really just like to know how to set some sort of timout like 10 seconds or so if they can't login, redirect them to another page.

Hello,

I have seen headers used for redirects, and from my FMStudio pages it seems that the following line of code is used to trap for errors:

if(is_a($result,"FX_Error") || $result['errorCode'] != "0") fmsTrapError($result,"error.php");

fmsTrapError is an FMStudio specific function that does the redirect to the requested page, but you could potentially use a Location HTTP header for the redirect.

Best,

Jose
