Body
<p>I want to present dynamically generated (PHP, XML) questionnaires to the user in the browser like this: <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/csgL9.png" alt="layout draft of questionnaire"></p> <p><strong>requirements:</strong><br> 1. The left column will will always be a number, the middle and the right column may swap position in some questionnaires.<br> 2. There will be questionnaires with 200 items or so over multiple pages.<br> 3. The width of the container (rounded corners) is fixed at 800px at this time, BUT<br> 4. it has to be flexible / fluid in the near future for being displayed on mobile devices like iPad and iPhone</p> <p><strong>what I've tried</strong><br> I experimented both with a <code><table></code> based and a <code><div></code> based layout:</p> <p>The <code><table></code> was clean and simple, but with lots of overhead and not very flexible, e.g. if I swapped middle and right column for item #2 only...</p> <p>The <code><div></code> based layout was sleeker, I let the containers float, but have to set the <code>divs</code> to a fixed width in order to get them align in columns. In a fluid design, I do not know the widths in advance, which will be a mess then...</p> <p><strong>questions</strong> to the pros:<br> 1. <code><table></code> or <code><div></code>, regarding my requirements above, what would you prefer?<br> 2. is there some magic tool to make this nice and easy?<br> 3. would you rather serve the raw data and let a client-side script (jQuery) do the positioning instead?</p>

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.
