    <p>I am attempting to submit a form contained in a parent window from a child iframe using jQuery without much luck.</p> <p>In the child window I have the following validation function:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="templates/js/jquery.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="templates/js/jquery.validate.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script&gt; $(document).ready(function(){ $("#form_invoice_item").validate({ submitHandler: function (form) { // Check if main invoice already saved if ($('#invoice_id').val() == "") { // Change target to processing iframe try { parent.$('#invoice_form').ajaxSubmit(); } catch(e) { //debug alert ("Error:" + e); } } else { alert ("Saving invoice " + $('#invoice_id').val() + ' items'); } //form.submit(); //debug } }); }); &lt;/script&gt; &lt;form method="post" id="form_invoice_item" name="form_invoice_item" action="index.php" target="invoice_items"&gt; </code></pre> <p>The error that occurs at <code>parent.$('#invoice_form').ajaxSubmit();</code> is </p> <blockquote> <p>Error:TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'ajaxSubmit'</p> </blockquote> <p>If I use the following snippet which is just in plain Javascript, there is no problem(Obviously this isn't jQuery but it gets the job done). How do i do this in jQuery:</p> <pre><code>parent.document.getElementById('invoice_form').target='process'; parent.document.getElementById('invoice_form').submit(); parent.document.getElementById('invoice_form').target=''; </code></pre> <p>I have a hidden iframe called process which has its display property set to hidden. </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.
