    <p>I try to update a input in a html form via datalist by updating the datalist itself using jquery ajax calls. in case of using ajax the input does not show the options, <strong>but</strong> when i click into the input field again. the static test version without ajax does work as expected, showing options while typing into the input field.</p> <p>HTML markup</p> <pre><code>&lt;form id="formID" class="form-horizontal"&gt; &lt;div class="control-group"&gt; &lt;label class="control-label" for="input"&gt;Location&lt;/label&gt; &lt;div class="controls"&gt; &lt;input type="text" list="LIST_CITIES" id="inputCity" placeholder="Enter your location.."&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;!-- submit --&gt; &lt;button type="submit" class="btn"&gt;Submit&lt;/button&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;datalist id="LIST_CITIES"&gt;&lt;/datalist&gt; </code></pre> <p>without ajax (does work):</p> <pre><code>$('.controls').on("input click", "#inputCity", function(e) { var val = $(this).val(); dataList.empty(); if(val === "" || val.length &lt; 3) return; if(testObj.results.length) { for(var i=0, len=testObj.results.length; i&lt;len; i++) { var opt = $("&lt;option&gt;&lt;/option&gt;").attr("value", testObj.results[i]['city']); tempObj[testObj.results[i]['city']] = testObj.results[i]['id']; dataList.append(opt); } } }); </code></pre> <p>with ajax (does not work while typing):</p> <pre><code>$('.controls').on("input click", "#inputCity", function(e) { var val = $(this).val(); dataList.empty(); if(val === "" || val.length &lt; 3) return; $.ajax({ type: "GET", url: GET_cities, data: {startswith: val, maxRows: 5}, success:function(data){ if(data.results.length) { for(var i=0, len=data.results.length; i&lt;len; i++) { var opt = $("&lt;option&gt;&lt;/option&gt;").attr("value", data.results[i]['city']); tempObj[data.results[i]['city']] = data.results[i]['id']; dataList.append(opt); } } } }); </code></pre>

Guidance
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).
