Hi,

I have a script which pulls data from the web using a Web Viewer. The script then sets a global field with the contents of the Web Viewer using the following:

Set Field [ gGeocodes; GetLayoutObjectAttribute("GPSWebViewer"; "content") ] 

The script works great within FileMaker.

But, I tried to get this to work for web clients using PHP.FX but no success.

So I backtracked to see if it would even work via IWP... but, also no success.

Do FileMaker scripts over-the-web even allow content to be pulled in from Web Viewers?

Is there another way to do this... maybe using curl?

Many thanks from a frustrated,

ft.

OK.

So cURL requires an Applescript to call a shell script. The Applescript scriptstep is not web compatible.

So is it possible to have a FileMaker script, activated through web publishing (IWP or other web interface) which can pull information in from a 3rd party website?

Or am I on a road to nowhere... do I need to look at PHP to do this outside of FMPro?

I think I'll start a new thread!

Thanks,

ft.
