    <p>I just started learning JS the other day and am (of course) having some difficulty. I usually grasp onto things quickly but I can't for the life of my find a solution to this. I'd like to <strong>understand</strong> why this is happening.</p> <p>My objective is to use 3 prompt boxes, all which come one after another, to print out a piece of html code, which will be a simple URL. I'll add more to this but I'd like to get past this first.</p> <p>At the moment, I'm getting the prompts, but after I enter data into the third box and submit it, nothing happens. </p> <p>What am I doing wrong here? If it's an error with my document.write code, what are some things I should be looking out for?</p> <p>Thanks!..</p> <pre><code>function show_prompt() { var site_type = prompt("What kind of link is this?"); var site_url = prompt("What is the URL?"); var site_title = prompt("Give the link a title"); if (site_type = website) { document.write("&lt;a style=\"color: #777777\" href=\"http:\/\/site_url\" title=\"site_title\"&gt;site_title&lt;\/a&gt;"); } else if (site_type = video) { document.write("&lt;a style=\"color:#98B2C3\" href=\"http:\/\/site_url\" title=\"site_title\"&gt;site_title&lt;\/a&gt;"); } else if (site_type = image) { document.write("&lt;a style=\"color:#8D5359\" href=\"http:\/\/site_url\" title=\"site_title\"&gt;site_title&lt;\/a&gt;"); } else (site_type = article); { document.write("&lt;a style=\"color:#768D53\" href=\"http:\/\/site_url\" title=\"site_title\"&gt;site_title&lt;\/a&gt;"); } } </code></pre>

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.
