[swx] Remote methods work in the explorer but not when called form custom application

[ben]

Hi Pete...

Just a thought... in php "Echo: " + $n1 would not concatenate the 
values. I think it tries to convert them to number first then add them.. 
which could explain why you get undefined as a result..

"Echo: " . $n1 would concatenate instead..

Does that help??
