    <p>Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.</p> <p>I'm not new to OOP but I am not as familiar with how it works in Javascript. I understand the notion that classes in js are objects.</p> <p>I'm writing a script that will write some html and allow the user to add or remove some elements. Everything works fine except when you click on "Add Checkbox" for any of the instances the html is updated in the last instance as opposed to itself (this is what leads me to believe there is some kind of scoping or encapsulation failure).</p> <p>I have simplified the problem and posted a fiddle, click on "Add Checkbox" for the "colors" instance and you'll see that the html is added to the "animals" group instead. Note my js comment on line 25.</p> <p><a href="http://jsfiddle.net/XrJ3D/" rel="nofollow">http://jsfiddle.net/XrJ3D/</a></p> <pre><code>var CheckboxGroup = function(label){ return this.init(label); } CheckboxGroup.prototype = { type: "checkbox", label: null, description: null, $label: null, init: function(label){ if(!label) label = "Checkboxes"; self = this; this.$wrap = $("&lt;div class='checkBoxGroup'&gt;&lt;/div&gt;"); this.$label = $("&lt;div&gt;"+label+"&lt;/div&gt;").appendTo(this.$wrap); this.$options = $("&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;").appendTo(this.$wrap); this.$add = $("&lt;div class='n'&gt;Add Checkbox&lt;/div&gt;").appendTo(this.$wrap); this.$add.click(function(){ self.addOption("New Option"); }); this.options = []; return this; }, addOption: function(label){ $option = $("&lt;div class='c'&gt;&lt;input type='checkbox' name='"+label+"'&gt;&lt;span class='l'&gt;"+label+"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;").appendTo(this.$options); $remove = $("&lt;span class='rm'&gt;x&lt;/span&gt;").appendTo($option); $remove.click(function(){ var r=confirm("Remove Option?"); if (r==false) return; $(this).parents('.c').remove(); }); this.options.push($option); return $option; }, get: function(){ return this.$wrap; } } // === CREATE SOME INSTANCES === a = new CheckboxGroup("Colors"); a.addOption('red'); a.addOption('green'); a.addOption('blue'); $('body').append(a.get()); b = new CheckboxGroup("Animals"); b.addOption('dog'); b.addOption('cat'); $('body').append(b.get()); </code></pre> <p>Thanks for any insight.</p>

    1. CONot exactly minimal, which is preferred, but at least now it'll remain available if the external resource ever goes away ..

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).
