    <p>I'm not normally in a need to ask basic or vague JavaScript questions on SO, so pardon me if there is little details here - I'm not sure how to get more.</p> <p>In the online user manual I'm maintaining, I'm adding custom buttons on each page to get a direct link to the current page (otherwise grabbing the URL just brings you to the home screen), as well as a few extra features. These buttons are added using Javascript, or rather they are already hidden in the HTML, are updated after an AJAX call and then displayed.</p> <p>It has taken me a <em>lot</em> of work to get these working, in Firefox, Chrome, IE6, 7, 8, 9, I'm sure you know how these things go.</p> <p>Now comes IE10 with yet another really weird behavior that I want to bang my head on the wall for. If you visit <a href="http://help.objectiflune.com/en/knowledgebase/" rel="nofollow">http://help.objectiflune.com/en/knowledgebase/</a> you will see those buttons on the right inside the main frame. They're grey and blue, top of the page.</p> <p>So this first "welcome" page is fine, it works great, no issue. However, if you navigate to any sub page using the TOC on the left (such as Error Codes -> PlanetPress Design -> PlanetPress Design Error PXXXX), the buttons all disappear.</p> <p>I've also noticed that if you get the URL for the page itself (inside the frame, again) and you open it in another tab, it first does not show them, but then refreshing the page makes the buttons appear.</p> <p>I've tried using the F12 developper console, but it requires refreshing the page to show the console so I can`t use it in those new tabs. As for using within the whole frame system, it doesn't seem to be showing me any errors, nothing weird.</p> <p>Again I'm sorry if this is an "it's not working" with no further technical details, but... there are none I know how to give.</p> <p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: For the specific code, please turn to <a href="http://help.objectiflune.com/common/scripts/olCommon.js" rel="nofollow">http://help.objectiflune.com/common/scripts/olCommon.js</a> , and look at the function starting at line 207 (<code>function buildMenu()</code>). this is the function that retrieves the information and displays the appropriate menus, such as <code>$("#guidebuttons").show();</code></p>

    1. COYou're using Flash there, aren't you? IE10 Metro requires special handling of Flash.

    2. COBarmar, there is Flash on this, yes, as there is a small flash tool that makes it possible to copy the URL to the clipboard. However, the display of all those buttons is (or should be) independant of Flash. The buttons are HTML+CSS, the display is done using jQuery.

    3. COI can't be sure, and the only way I can test IE10 is with BrowserStack, but I suspect that's the source of the problem. Although it doesn't explain why it's only an issue when you drill down deeply.

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
