When using either iwp or the php assistant on adv FMS 11, can an external data source in a solution (ie a MYSQL table) show data in the web pages ? I have so far been unsuccessful. It seems to only display data from native FM tables even though the solution is showing data in the layouts with the mysql table, the web page shows zero records.

I dont know if im doing something wrong as in a bad/old odbc driver or if the functionality of what i would like is just not there ?

appreciate any feedback as every call to filemaker has told me it will work but i have never seen it.

After a few days from the FM forums the issue was i had not embedded a user name and password in the manage connections window.

Once editing the connection all the mysql data was appearing perfectly in the web.
