5-6 FileMaker Pro 5.5 Unlimited Administrator’s Guide
The RESULTSET element contains all of the ROW elements
returned as the result of a query and an attribute for the total number
of records found. Each ROW element contains the field/column data
for one row in the result set—including the record ID for the row, the
modification ID for the row, and the COL element containing the
data for one field/column in the row (where multiple DATA
elements represent one of the values in a repeating or portal field).
Note The content of container fields in the database will be
generated in the form of the relative URL used for retrieving the
content, instead of the actual content (such as an image).
To qualify the XML elements for the FileMaker Pro application, the
names of all elements and attributes in this grammar are associated
with the unique XML namespace http://www.filemaker.com/
fmpxmlresult. This namespace is declared in the grammar as the
default namespace.
The following is an example of XML data generated with the
FMPXMLRESULT grammar.
