    <p>what im doing is writing a program for myself to use in my community theater. we will have a computer in the control room (Sound Booth) and a computer backstage. </p> <p>I am making a grid of say 10 "buttons" on the screen (more likely styled tags). there will be text in the buttons like "Mic 1 Battery Change" and it will be a muted gray color:</p> <pre><code> &lt;a class="g"&gt;TEXT&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>the desired goal is that if control room hits a button the button should turn red:</p> <pre><code> &lt;a class="r"&gt;TEXT&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>this should change both on the control room computer and on the one backstage, and when the person back stage clicks the button again (while its red), it reverts back to gray in both locations to let control know that the task has been completed. </p> <p>I cant imagine this is difficult to accomplish with a database and ajax, however im really less than a novice with ajax so i don't know the best approach. if someone could either point me to a tutorial for something i can adapt to this fairly easily or if someone who knows how to do this could write me some simple code for this kind of thing and explain it. that would be awesome.</p>

    3. COIs your objective is to write software for this as a learning exercise or to solve a problem with a piece of software? If you just need a tool to communicate I suggest a shared google doc or trello board to accomplish this. If you want to learn how to write software I would start with CodeAcademy and work up to a problem like this.

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.
