fmp:// protocol example - using FileMaker scripts as callback validators

A simple FileMaker database demonstrating one of many ways to implement modal dialogs. Because the dialog code knows nothing of the underlying database, the caller passes a script name which the dialog code calls (via fmp://) when the user clicks the OK button. The script then validates the data and optionally displays a message.
