Can I call a php page through FileMaker

Featured Replies

Hi

Is it possible to call a php page from ScriptMaker? I'm transferring some data out of FileMaker via ODBC into a MySQL table. Once the data is inside te MySQL table (which I've already got it to do through the Execite SQL command ), I would like "activate" a php page which runs a script to manipulate that data so it is usable. Is this possible natively or do I have to go through the plugin route?

... What are you doing with the data with PHP that you can't do before hand in FileMaker?

Hi Alex,

Im trying to get data out of FileMaker into Moodle an opensource VLE program. I'm using Execute SQL to populate the moodle table (MySQL) which works fine. Moodle has a Import option through the use of a php page, which allows you to import a csv file into a temp table and then manupulate the data from that CSV file into the necessary tables. I thought I could fire off that page once I have my data uploaded in the temp table.

Im actually getting through this slowly, by populating each table I need as Moodle is seriously normalized…just thought if I could fire off the update.php file it would be far more easier to code perhaps and a little bit more interesting :….

Well you could fire it by referencing the php file in a web viewer ... but it would be hard to prevent the script firing multiple times should the window refresh.
