    <p>I have this certain code that checks if a variable is <strong>not empty</strong> if it is not empty it will merge in an array that "has" a value in it. if it is empty it will merge in an array but passing "no values or any other stuff even null values"</p> <p>Here my code for it.</p> <pre><code>$fb_description_arr[] = ($page_desc != "") ? $page_desc : array(); $fb_share_arr[] = ($share_link != "") ? $share_link : array(); $tweet_arr[] = ($twitter_link != "") ? $twitter_link : array(); $follow_arr[] = ($twitter_follow != "") ? $twitter_follow : array(); $site_link_arr[] = ($site_link != "") ? $site_link : array(); </code></pre> <p>Let's say <strong>$page_desc is not null</strong>, and has a value of "This is me" and the <strong>rest of the variables are null</strong></p> <pre><code>$test_arr = array_merge($fb_description_arr, $fb_share_arr, $tweet_arr, $follow_arr, $site_link_arr); print_r($test_arr); </code></pre> <p>so I tried to debug and show the merged array on it. that will be shown below.</p> <p><strong>Array ( [0] => This is me[1] => Array ( ) [2] => Array ( ) [3] => Array ( ) [4] => Array ( ) )</strong></p> <p>So if I count it up using the count() function in php </p> <pre><code>$total_raffle = count(array_merge($fb_description_arr, $fb_share_arr, $tweet_arr, $follow_arr, $site_link_arr)); </code></pre> <p>Obviously, it will show an output of <strong>"5"</strong></p> <p>What solutions I've tried in ternary operator to pass an empty value that will not be counted in count() function.</p> <ol> <li>array()</li> <li>null</li> <li>false</li> <li>""</li> </ol> <p>So my desired output is <strong>"1"</strong> since <strong>$page_desc is the only variable that has value in it</strong> and the rest doesn't have any value</p> <p>Any solutions for this stuff?</p> <p>A help would be appreciated. :)</p>

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.
