Perhaps I am making this harder than it needs to be. Ultimately, what I am looking for is a way for users to comment on a photo that is in a record in FileMaker. Currently the photo file is embedded; may use SuperContainer in the future or may simply have it in one directory. Regardless, I'd like users to comment right on the photo.

Any thoughts/ideas/suggestions?

After opening your file off the top of my head it looks like you are not declaring the script tag before the javascript code.

Before any chunk of javascript code you need to have the tag:

and then at the end of the code you put:

I didn't look at things really closely so there may be other issues but that would be the first step to try.

So just wrap any of your jquery functions in the javascript tags and see what happens.

Thanks for the reply, Tanner.

I was indeed making this harder than needed. Using jQuery_Notes in MAMP I ended up with the following solution:

1. FMP web viewer:


"http://localhost:8888/jQuery_Notes/index.php?name=images/" & TO::name





2. jQuery_Notes, in the file index.php:

<?php if (!isset ($_GET['name'])) { $name = ""; } else { $name = $_GET['name']; } ?>

Seems to work pretty well. The notes themselves are written to a separate document. I think they could be brought into FMP via ScriptMaster, if needed.
