    <p>Hi I've tried a number of different methods to try and work this problem but I'd like your help please.</p> <p>I have a a css formatted but empty SECTION that I'm trying to dynamically create a layout within using JQuery when a button is clicked.</p> <p>This is my html section:</p> <pre><code>&lt;SECTION ID="Section_Article_1"&gt; &lt;P CLASS="header"&gt;Title&lt;/P&gt; &lt;/SECTION&gt; </code></pre> <p>This is my script:</p> <pre><code>$(document).ready(function(){ $("#btn1").click(function(){ var topStyles = { backgroundColor : "#69830E", color: "#ffffff", fontSize: 20, fontWeight: "", textAlign: "center", marginTop: "-20px", }; $("#Section_Article_1").append("&lt;div id = 'title'&gt;&lt;p&gt;Header&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;"); $("#title").css(topStyles); var leftColumn = { backgroundColor : "#ffffff", width: "30%", height: "500px", color: "#000000", fontSize: 18, fontWeight: "", marginTop: "-20px", float:left, paddingLeft: "2px", }; $("#Section_Article_1").append("&lt;div id = 'left'&gt;&lt;p&gt;Left Column&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;"); $("#left").css(leftColumn); var rightSection = { backgroundColor : "#000000", width: "70%", height: "500px", color: "#ffffff", fontSize: 18, fontWeight: "", textAlign: "center", marginTop: "-18px" }; $("#Section_Article_1").append("&lt;div id = 'right'&gt;&lt;p&gt;Right Section&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;"); $("#right").css(rightSection); }); }); </code></pre> <p>When I run the function my "title" div appears fine as I want it, but the other two are not there. When I remove the "float: left" from my second div, they both appear but are displayed one on top of the other.</p> <p>I'm trying to get my title bar to display across the top, then my other two to be beneath it with my second div "left" to display on the left and the third div "right" to display on the right next to "left"</p> <p>I tried setting my containing section to display:inline but it didn't work either.</p> <p>How can I display my "left" div and "right" div inline without them disappearing? Thanks</p>

    1. COWe seem to be missing some html from your sample, is everything included?

    2. COIn the interest of troubleshooting your layout issues you should use jsFiddle or Bootply (http://bootply.com/60455) to separate out the HTML and CSS and see what's going wrong. It's hard to do CSS layout via jQuery.

    3. CO@Xotic750 I also have some css for my section and the section itself is contained within an ARTICLE. I can add these later if necessary. Skelly thanks for the links I'll check those out :)

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.
