<p>I have four divs that are absolutely positioned over a bxSlider div. These four dive are supposed to expand to 20px width, then shrink to 0 px width, pause, change color and repeat.</p> <p>I assigned each div an id and a common class for the set. When I ran my jQuery against the class, the color changed a couple of times and then failed to change any more. But when I converted the same code to run against the ids, it executes perfectly.</p> <p>My jQuery code is:</p> <pre><code> script type="text/javascript"> jQuery(document).ready(function(){ bar1LoopBus(); }); function bar1LoopBus() { jQuery("#bar1").css("background", "#00b2e3" ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '20px' }, 2000 ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '0px' }, 2000 ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '0px' }, 2000 , bar1LoopDes ); } function bar1LoopDes() { jQuery("#bar1").css("background", "#9c603e" ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '20px' }, 2000 ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '0px' }, 2000 ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '0px' }, 2000 , bar1LoopSus ); } function bar1LoopSus() { jQuery("#bar1").css("background", "#a0b943" ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '20px' }, 2000 ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '0px' }, 2000 ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '0px' }, 2000 , bar1LoopInn ); } function bar1LoopInn() { jQuery("#bar1").css("background", "#cc0001" ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '20px' }, 2000 ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '0px' }, 2000 ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '0px' }, 2000 , bar1LoopTec ); } function bar1LoopTec() { jQuery("#bar1").css("background", "#f6821f" ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '20px' }, 2000 ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '0px' }, 2000 ); jQuery("#bar1").animate({ width: '0px' }, 2000 , bar1LoopBus ); } </script> </code></pre> <p>And my divs code is:</p> <pre><code><div id="bars"> <div id="bar1" class="slidebar"></div> <div id="bar2" class="slidebar"></div> <div id="bar3" class="slidebar"></div> <div id="bar4" class="slidebar"></div> </div> </code></pre> <p>As it stands now, I have to run the whole jQuery code four times, once for each div. This seems like a lot of waste, but as I said, if I try to run it once with the class instead of the ids the color changes two or three times, and then stays stuck on the one color. The width changes continue to happen as expected.</p> <p>[edit = adding full code per request]</p> <pre><code> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">  <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;

1. COShow the code you'd use to select and manipulate the classes. Maybe you've just got a simple syntax error.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
