    <h3>Background</h3> <p>Okay, I have a page which displays simple information on rows from a mysql database. For example, the table has 7 columns, but only #'s 1, 3 &amp; 4 are displayed on the page. On the right side of the row is a href link to open a modal window, and I am attempting to display all the rows, in a nicely formatted window with html/css/etc... </p> <p>After spending about 4 hours in tutorials on this, the closest thing I have come up with is the code base below, which does the job of passing the "id" to the json script, (almost) properly pulls the information, puts it in a single object line, and passes it back into my html/php page to be read into the modal window.</p> <p>I am politely asking for help to convert my codebase <b>so that it transfers all objects individually</b> instead of one gigantic line of php to echo into html (arse-backwards). I am rather new to JSON/AJAX/jquery, but can navigate and work with the html/css/php once I am able to figure this out. </p> <p>My apologies if the code examples are a little muffled and poor in syntax, I have spent hours trying to get this work as it is supposed to.</p> <h3>PHP Page With The AJAX</h3> <pre><code>$('.view_information').click(function(e) { // Button which will activate our modal //On Clicking the function, dynamically load the data for the viewing var data_id = $(this).data('id'); $.ajax({ url: 'view_agency_info.php', type: 'POST', data: {id: data_id}, dataType: 'json', success: function(data){ $('.view_modal_content').html(data.html); // LOAD THE DATA INTO THIS DIV //I want to be able to use... //$('.placeholder_name')xxxx //$('.placeholder_accountnumber')etc }, error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown){ $('.view_modal_content').html(''); alert('Error Loading Information'); } }); </code></pre> <p>As you can see from the php page, as of right now, the mysql is being pulled into an array, then inserted individually into a single HTML object, then being passed back into PHP to be outputted. How can I convert this code to output more than just one object?</p> <h3>JSON</h3> <pre><code>&lt;?php $customer_id=$_SESSION['customer']['customer_id']; $id = (int)$_POST['id']; $query = "SELECT * FROM collections_list WHERE id={$id} &amp;&amp; customer_id=$customer_id LIMIT 1"; //expecting one row $result = mysql_query( $query ); //$message = mysql_fetch_assoc( $result ); //expecting just one row $message=array(); while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $message[]=$row['agency_name']; $message[]=$row['account_number']; $message[]=$row['phone']; } $json = array(); $json['html'] = '&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;id:'.$id.'.&lt;br&gt;Agency Name: '.$message[0].'&lt;br&gt;Account Number:'.$message[1]."&lt;br&gt;Phone:".$message[2].'&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;'.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;test'; header('Content-Type: application/json'); echo json_encode( $json ); ?&gt; </code></pre>

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.
