The issue is that some point after I set my code as follows:</p> <pre><code>$(SELECTED).css("font-size","16pt"); </code></pre> <p>I would need to fetch it. When I fetch it, it doesn't return 16pt, but instead 21px. Is there either a conversion ratio I can use, or a way to fetch 16pt?</p> <pre><code>var fetched_size = $(SELECTED).css("font-size"); </code></pre> <h2>Is there an option you need to pass in, or a different way of handling it?</h2> <p>As a follow up to this question, i had noticed that things are not looking they way they should on what i am building. The textbox holding my data seems to be holding certain information. Do you know why the following would not work?</p> <pre><code>var x = "32"; $("#fontsize").val(decodeURIComponent(x)); //this points to a input:text //the above statement doesnt seem to override the current contents with the value of x. </code></pre>

    3. COJust keep in mind that the solution there is to scale it to 96 DPI because that's the hardcoded DPI value for his application which uses GD2. You should read the answer from @Kostia for more information about px vs pt.

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.
