    <p>I have used both. I don't have a strong recommendation, but have some considerations.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Mobile support.</strong> Flex requires Flash runtime, which is not present in many mobile platforms. For best results, you will in any case need a separate mobile interface, not just reuse the desktop interface, although the latter works up to some level.</li> <li><strong>Browser support.</strong> You will spend more time with jQuery on this. They abstract away many things, but once you get to the layout specifics of your app, you will still need to do a lot of work testing across browsers and platforms that is not needed with Flex.</li> <li><strong>UI layout and architecture.</strong> How complex is the app? How modular? Flex has very good patterns for componentizing your app, producing reusable components etc, jQuery as such does not help you with that, it is more barebones. With Javascript/jQuery you will need to do your own research to find the best architecture setup.</li> <li><strong>Development tools.</strong> If you like designing your app with a GUI, Flex has a very nice integrated design/coding IDE. You're on your own with Javascript. There are tools, but you will need to do your own selection.</li> <li><strong>Vendor lockin and cost.</strong> Flex costs money (well, the IDE anyway, you can get a free compiler but I haven't tried how usable it is.) Javascript/jQuery is "free" but need to spend time researching all of the above.</li> </ul> <p>User-experience-wise, both are equivalent, you can produce both good and bad experiences with them. Both have decent out-of-box UI widget sets, jQuery with ThemeRoller is somewhat more easily customizable, but Flex also bends itself nicely to skinning with a system very similar to W3C CSS.</p>

    1. COMobile support - I don't see that we will need/use this anytime soon. Browser support - Business wise, not really a plus for flex. Just support IE and Firefox and you get more users reached than flash runtime penetration. UI layout and architecture - I really don't know at this stage. Vendor locking and cost - This is a concern. But Adobe has a lot of clout on web design/development, I am pretty sure they will support flash/flex in the future. I think RIA platform will be a battleground between Adobe and Microsoft, and flash will be Adobe's main advantage.

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
