    <p>I am having a problem with a block of my code, this section creates boxes of chocolates based on what a user chooses in a previous step and what data is pulled from the database in the api script. the problem is that it doesn't work without the alert('hi') in it. if i take that out it will just create an empty box without dropping the flavors in it, the flavor the flavors are inserted with the createFlavorArray function.</p> <pre><code>var product = new Array(); var price = new Array(); var size = new Array(); $(function () { $.ajax({ type: 'POST', url: 'phpscripts/api.php', data: "", dataType: 'json', success: function(rows) { count = 0; for (var i in rows) { var row = rows[i]; product[count] = row[0]; price[count] = row[1]; size[count] = row[2]; count++; } } }); }); //b = box //o = option that is inside the box //nextBoxId is the box id //nextFlavorId is the option or flavor id var nextBoxId = 1; var nextFlavorId = 1; var orderCap = 0; var subTotal = 0; var numOfChocolates = 0; var numOfBoxes = 0; $(document).ready(function(){ while (halfPoundBoxes &gt; 0) { $("#boxes").append('&lt;div id="b'+nextBoxId+'"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'); $('#b'+nextBoxId).addClass('div-table-selection'); $('#b'+nextBoxId).append($('#minusBox').clone().attr('id', "m"+nextBoxId)); $('#b'+nextBoxId).append('&lt;div style="display:table-row"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'); //call the function to loop through and create the number of flavor options needed var x = 0; alert('hi'); while(x &lt; product.length){ if ('1/2lb Box' == product[x]) { createFlavorArray(size[x], nextBoxId); subTotal += price[x] * 1; $('#b'+nextBoxId).attr('title', product[x]); } x++; } //clone the delete box button and make it visible $('#m'+nextBoxId).show(500); $('#b'+nextBoxId).append("&lt;br /&gt;"); if (orderCap == 0) { $('#boxes').append('&lt;div id="msg"&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you wish to add another box to your order select the size and click +1 Box.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'); } $("#m"+nextBoxId).click(function() { $(this).parent().remove(); orderCap--; //if they're ordering zero boxes hide the order button //remove total price //remove the message if (orderCap == 0) { document.getElementById('orderBtn').style.display = "none"; $("#msg").remove(); $("#totalPrice").empty(); } if (orderCap &lt; 10) { $("#cap").remove(); $("#addBox").show(500); } var y = 0; while (y &lt; product.length) { if ('1/2lb Box' == product[y]) { subTotal -= price[y] * 1; numOfChocolates -= size[y] * 1; } y++; } $('#totalPrice').html("&lt;p&gt;Sub Total: " + subTotal + "&lt;/p&gt;") //subtract the new $('#finalpaypal').val(subTotal); }); nextBoxId++; orderCap++; numOfBoxes++; $('#totalPrice').html("&lt;p&gt;Sub Total: " + subTotal + "&lt;/p&gt;") halfPoundBoxes--; } </code></pre>

    1. COAJAX is asynchronous, so the code runs before the call is done. The `alert` delays the code, and when you close it, it just so happens that the AJAX call is done.

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

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