    <p>Parsing the HTML generated by another PHP script is rather hackish. If you are developing a new site, at a minimum, you should divide your PHP script into functions and then, for AJAX requests, only call the necessary functions.</p> <p>Even if you are working on an existing, complex site, keep in mind that jQuery's <a href="http://api.jquery.com/load/" rel="nofollow">.load()</a> allows you to insert a specific fragment of the server's response into the document, discarding the rest:</p> <pre><code>$('#content').load('script.php #content'); </code></pre> <hr> <p>That said, what you are asking about is possible:</p> <ul> <li><p>PHP's <a href="http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.outcontrol.php" rel="nofollow">output control</a> functions allow you to capture a script's output as a string, which you can parse using str_get_html(). To make this work, you would have to include the existing PHP script. Note that any script you include will have access to global functions and variables, superglobals, and classes.</p> <p><strong>Warning:</strong> Make sure you check the requested filename against a whitelist of specific files to prevent <a href="http://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/98.html" rel="nofollow">file inclusion attacks</a>. Merely blacklisting URLs and disabling allow_url_fopen are not sufficient to protect your site.</p> <pre><code>ob_start(); require $filename; // might have to be outside of a function $html = str_get_html(ob_get_clean()); </code></pre></li> <li><p>Alternatively, you could have the AJAX script make its own HTTP request using either <a href="http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file-get-contents.php" rel="nofollow">file_get_contents()</a> or <a href="http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.curl.php" rel="nofollow">cURL</a> (specifying an absolute URL, not a filename). Unless you configure your web server otherwise, this internal request would show up in your web server's access log as coming from 127.0.0.1 or your web server's IP address.</p></li> </ul>

    1. COyou are right the .load function is a much easier way to do what I was trying to do. I didn't know you could use it to load a part of a page that way. Thanks

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).
