    <p>I have made a website in which the users can select a value from a dropdown menu and get some information from a database. I used ajax to send the request to the database (so the page doesn't get refreshed when I send the request). Here is the part of the jquery function:</p> <pre><code> $.ajax({ type:'POST', url:'activities_code.php', data: {datastr:datastr, datastr1:datastr1}, success:function(response){ $("#msg").html(response); }});}); // there are other functions before.. </code></pre> <p>The results appear on the main container of the webpage. They are composed of a title and some text. I echo the title in such a way so it is a link. I also give to each element an id and a class so I can call it later. Here is the corresponding code:</p> <pre><code> echo "&lt;table id=\"container\"&gt;"; $num_results = 0; while ($row=mysqli_fetch_array($result, MYSQLI_ASSOC)) { // Here the columns of title and information are printed echo "&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;"; echo "&lt;a href='test.php' name=\"fd\" id=\"t".$t."\" target=\"_new\" class='pickanchor' onClick=\"test()\"&gt;".$row['title']."&lt;/a&gt;"; echo "&lt;br&gt;"; echo $row['PK']; echo "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; echo "&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;"; echo $row['Information']; echo "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; } </code></pre> <p>What I am trying to do now is: When I click on the title (which is a link), a new page to open in which a php script runs a query and show more information: Here is what I have:</p> <pre><code> &lt;?php include('connect.php'); $query = "SELECT title,Information from activities where title='?????'"; $result = mysqli_query($dbcon, $query) or die('no available data'); echo "&lt;table&gt;"; $num_results = 0; while ($row=mysqli_fetch_array($result, MYSQLI_ASSOC)) { // Here the columns of title and information are printed echo "&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;"; echo "&lt;a href='test.php' id=\"t\".$t target=\"_new\"&gt;".$row['title']." &lt;/a&gt;"; echo "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; echo "&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;"; echo $row['Information']; echo "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; // Here I sum up the number of the results $num_results=$num_results+1; } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>I am trying to find a way to put in my query, in the where clause, the name of the title that I selected:</p> <pre><code> $query = "SELECT title,Information from activities where title='?????'"; </code></pre> <p>Any help would be much appreciated. Let me know if everything is clear or I didn't explain some point clearly. Thanks. D.</p>

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.
