Hi,

Not sure if this is in the correct place but I am trying to get the foreignID for a mysql table that is used in Filemaker.

We have a FM set up that uses mySQL as it data source.

We have created a php page that searches the same database. I am trying to work out how I can have a link from the PHP to go to the correct record in FileMaker.

The way i thought of doing it was using the snapshot link. If you open one up in a text editor it is simple xml. My idea was to get the php to generate a snapshot file .fpsl and open that file to take me to the correct record.

What I am struggling with is setting the correct parameters in the file. The foreignID does not seem to relate to mySQL primary key and I can not seem to find a way to get that id via a calc in Filemaker.

Can anyone help or suggest a better way
