    <p>please guide me in right direction if you can. </p> <p><strong>My Situation</strong></p> <p>I have a script that pulls data in a <code>PHP</code> for loop. In that loop there is a parameter called <code>Price</code>.In the same loop im using a javascript function to convert the <code>Price</code>, from <code>Jap Yen</code> to <code>Aus Dollars</code> and finally display the price in <code>Aus Dollars</code>.</p> <p><strong>Problem</strong></p> <p>Im using <code>getElementById</code> to show the Price in AUD and here's my js funciton</p> <pre><code>function CarCostCalculatorSINGLE(enteredPriceInYen,spanID){ document.getElementById("calPriceInAudSINGLE"+spanID).innerHTML="$"+TotalCarCostInAUD.formatMoney(0, '.', ','); } </code></pre> <p>And in my php script, Im using a counter to add a number to the end of the span so the <code>IDs</code> don't clash.</p> <pre><code>$callPriceInAudCounter++; &lt;span id="calPriceInAudSINGLE&lt;?php echo $callPriceInAudCounter; ?&gt;"&gt;AUD Price Goes Here&lt;/span&gt; &lt;script&gt; CarCostCalculator(&lt;?php echo $fields['price']; ?&gt;, &lt;?php echo $callPriceInAudCounter; ?&gt;); &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>Im Lost</strong></p> <p>Im now lost becuase on some pages I have to <code>include</code> loops to show <code>Side bar content</code> etc and the <code>IDs</code> clash bigtime. This is not the best way to tackle this and I have no idea what else I can do to stay in the loop and show the price without duplicating the functions . Is there an alternative to <code>getElementById</code> or can you guys please guide me what's the best way to tackle this? </p> <p>Please tell me if you want me to clarify more, Im more than happy to.</p>

    1. COI think you'll have to show us the generated HTML (not the PHP) for the page that you're trying to solve an issue for. Too hard to follow what you're asking without seeing the HTML.

    3. CO@Supericy because there are more things happening in that function to calculte the final price. Its not just converting. Becuase of that I `have` to use the function, isnt it? Please correct me if im wrong.

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.
