    <p>i have a form with a textarea and a button. if the button is clicked while the textarea is empty, the form will reload and generate an error message. otherwise, the form will redirect to another page. now, i integrated a jquery dialog box. when the button is clicked the dialog box should appear and ask a yes or no question. the problem is when i click the button the dialog box appears but disappears after a few seconds. how can i fix this? i'm using php for the form and jquery for the dialog box. </p> <p>ps. in php, when you click a button in a form the page will reload right? i think this has something to do with the disappearing of the box because it disappears right before it reloads.</p> <p>here's my code</p> <pre><code> &lt;form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="&lt;? echo $PHP_SELF; ?&gt;" enctype="multipart/form-data" onsubmit="myRedirect();"&gt; &lt;p class="style16"&gt; &lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="style5"&gt;Rules:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;? if($_POST['continue']) { if($_POST['rules']==null) { echo $_SESSION['nature']."&lt;font color='red' size='3'&gt;&lt;b&gt;Please enter the rules.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;"; } } ?&gt; &lt;input type="hidden" name="other_id" value="&lt;? echo $_SESSION['other_id']; ?&gt;"&gt; &lt;input type="hidden" name="hidden1" value="&lt;? echo $_SESSION['hidden1']; ?&gt;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;textarea name="rules" rows="7" cols="49"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;div id="dialog" title="Empty the recycle bin?"&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="ui-icon ui-icon-alert" style="float:left; margin:0 7px 20px 0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Is the judge/speaker/facilitator from UST?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;input type="submit" name="continue" id="continue" value="Continue"/&gt; &lt;input type="reset" name="clear" value="Clear"&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;center&gt; &lt;!--&lt;input type="submit" name="clear2" id="clear2" value="Clear" onClick="textfield.value="" textfield2.value="" textarea.value="" textarea2.value="" textarea3.value="" textarea4.value="" textarea5.value="" textarea6.value="" file.value="" "/&gt;--&gt; &lt;/center&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre>

    2. COFlavius is correct about having to use return false; I just want to add something- You said "in php, when you click a button in a form the page will reload right?" PHP is ONLY server side. There is no such thing as a PHP form or a PHP button. They are HTML elements. It is only because you have the action as $PHP_SELF that it directs to the same page (Just look at the html source in the browser to verify this)

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).
