Funky problem in Chrome: I have this social-icons <code>div</code> in the layout of my rails app: <pre><code><div class="social_media_icons"> <ul> <li ><a href="http://www.youtube.com/" target="_blank"><img src="/images/yt.jpg" /></a></li> <li ><a href="http://www.facebook.com/" target="_blank"><img src="/images/fb.jpg" /></a></li> <li ><a href="https://twitter.com" target="_blank"><img src="/images/tw.jpg" /></a></li> </ul> </div> </code></pre> And relevent css: <pre><code>.social_media_icons{ float: left; position: fixed; margin-top: -69%; } </code></pre> That I am moving around the screen with <code>@media</code> queries. Now the <code>@media</code> works fine for width but not so good for height. So when the content changes and the height of page gets larger or smaller I have a javascript function that changes the margin-top of the <code>div</code>: <pre><code>$(document).ready(function(){ if(document.documentElement.clientWidth >= 1101){ if($(".container").height() > 600 && $(".container").height() < 1299){ $(".social_media_icons").css("margin-top", "-115%"); //problem right here } else if($(".container").height() > 1300){ $(".social_media_icons").css("margin-top", "-273%"); //problem right here } else if($(".container").height() <= 500){ $(".social_media_icons").css("margin-top", "-45%"); } else{ $(".social_media_icons").css("margin-top", "-68%"); } } }); </code></pre> As you can see the values for the <code>margin-top</code>, on the commented lines, (<code>-115%</code> and <code>-273%</code> respectively) are a little messed up! And of course those values don't work at all in FF or IE. Question: Why is Chrome requiring such absurd values for the % of <code>margin-top</code> when the content on the page gets any larger then <code>600px</code>? In fact why am I having to change the % of <code>margin-top</code> at all? Shouldn't it be relative to the view window on a <code>fixed</code> element? Which would mean that setting the value of <code>margin-top</code> once, should position it in the exact same place no matter the content because the <code>view-port</code> height never changes.

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.
