    <p>Can anyone spot an obvious error? Why is this Javascript generated table (<code>showResults</code> function) not showing up in my html? This always happens when I have a lot of literal values to quote...I'd appreciate any other comments on my formatting (white-space) as well! </p> <pre><code> &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; //calculates sum of all values within an array function totalVotes(votes){ / var total=0; for (i=0;i&lt;votes.length;i++){ total = votes[i] + total; } return total; } //calculates a percentage, rounded to nearest integer function calcPercent(item, sum){ return Math.round((item/sum)*100); } //tests value of partyType parameter function createBar(partyType, percent){ switch (partyType){ case D: barText="&lt;td class='dem'&gt;&lt;/td&gt;"; break; case R: barText="&lt;td class='rep'&gt;&lt;/td&gt;"; break; case I: barText="&lt;td class='ind'&gt;&lt;/td&gt;"; break; case G: barText="&lt;td class='green'&gt;&lt;/td&gt;"; break; case L: barText="&lt;td class='lib'&gt;&lt;/td&gt;"; break; } for(i=1;i&lt;=percent;i++){ document.write(barText); } } function showResults(race,name,party,votes){ var totalV=function totalVotes(votes); document.write("&lt;h2&gt;" +race+ "&lt;/h2&gt;"); document.write("&lt;table cellspacing='0'&gt;"); document.write("&lt;tr&gt;"); document.write("&lt;th&gt;Candidate&lt;/th&gt;"); document.write("&lt;th class='num'&gt; Votes&lt;/th&gt;"); document.write("&lt;th class='num'&gt;%&lt;/th&gt;"); document.write("&lt;/tr&gt;"); for (r=0;r&lt;name.length;r++){ document.write("&lt;tr&gt;"); document.write("&lt;td&gt;"+name[i]+ '(' +party[r]+ ")" +"&lt;/td&gt;"); document.write("&lt;td class='num'&gt;" +votes[r]+ "&lt;/td&gt;"); var percent=function calPercent(votes[r],totalV) document.write("&lt;td class='num'&gt;(" +percent[r]+ "%)&lt;/td&gt;"); createBar(party[r], percent); document.write("&lt;/tr&gt;"); } document.write("&lt;/table&gt;"); } </code></pre> <p></p>

    1. COPretty sure `var totalV=function totalVotes(votes);` is not valid Javascript. I think you mean `var totalV=totalVotes(votes);`.

    2. COAlso this is invalid `for(i=1;i<=percent;i++)` as going back through your code here `document.write("<td class='num'>(" +percent[r]+ "%)</td>");`, I think you meant to write `for(i=1;i<percent.length;i++)`. One other point with your for-loops, it is better to use `var` when declaring the variable you iterate over so it is disposed after the loop.

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).
