    <p>I don't know about cutting down on the HTML since I'm not aware of your specific needs, however, you can greatly simplify the PHP code with a HEREDOC. </p> <p>HEREDOC (<a href="http://us3.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.syntax.heredoc" rel="nofollow">PHP Manual HEREDOC</a>) is a method for outputting strings and outputting variables within as with double-quotes. The difference is that there is no need to escape any quotes within.</p> <p>Your code can use a HEREDOC like this:</p> <pre><code>$sql = "SELECT * FROM articles LIMIT $number"; $stmt = $pdo-&gt;query($sql); $stmt-&gt;setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC); while($row = $stmt-&gt;fetch()){ //Display the results formatted $dateTime = formatDateTime($row['datetime']) // functions cannot be used in HEREDOCS, so I replace it with the variable $dateTime declared here $content = &lt;&lt;&lt;HERE &lt;article class="igpPost"&gt; &lt;div class="igpPost-Divider"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;header&gt; &lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="index.php?article="$row['id']"&gt;$row['title']&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;div class="igpPost-AuthTime"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Posted By: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="#"&gt;$row['author']&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span&gt;at $dateTime&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="igpPost-AuthTime"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Tags: &lt;/span&gt; &lt;div class="igpPost-Img"&gt;&lt;img src="$row['imglocation']"/&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/header&gt; &lt;p&gt;$row['content']&lt;/p&gt; &lt;footer class="igpPost-Footer"&gt; &lt;div class="igpPost-ReadMore"&gt; &lt;h1&gt;&lt;a href="index.php?article="$row['id']"&gt;Read More..&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/footer&gt; &lt;/article&gt; HERE; echo $content; } </code></pre>

    1. COThe line "<div class="igpPost-AuthTime"><span>Posted By: </span><a href="#">$row['author']</a> <span>at $dateTime</span></div>" may be an issue. I think the # in <a href="#"> will look like a comment to php. So you'll need a workaround there.

Querying!

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
