    <p>I recently decided to start to take advantage of <strong>rich snippets</strong> to improve my <a href="http://www.jdclark.org/" rel="nofollow" title="The personal website of Jordan Clark (Stack Overflow member)">personal website</a>'s content for the search engines and, IMHO most importantly, the site readers &ndash; hi, Mam! ;-). One of these are <em>Google Authorship</em>. Personally, I think the idea behind <em>Google Authorship</em> is a sound one: it helps to brings a sense of identity, personality and &ndash; arguably, most importantly &ndash; credibility to what is still largely an anonymous web.</p> <p>Normally, I would link my article to <em>Google Authorship</em> using the following line of HTML:</p> <p><code>&lt;A REL="author" HREF="https://plus.google.com/112431363835029530079?rel=author"&gt;Jordan Clark&lt;/A&gt;</code></p> <p>However, in the instance of a website that publishes articles that are written by multiple authors, manually entering each another’s Google+ UID string starts to become a tiresome process.</p> <ol> <li><p>Is is valid to do the following:</p> <p>(a) Link to the author like so, using the script <code>"author.php"</code> (or other type of server-side script).</p> <p><code>&lt;A REL="author" HREF="/author.php?by=Alice&amp;rel=author/[UID]?rel=author"&gt;Alice&lt;/A&gt;</code></p> <p>(b) The file <code>"author.php"</code> scripts simply do a quick check for Alice's (or whoever) User ID string provided by Google, and then uses a simple HTTP redirect header to pass this data to Google.</p> <p>What I would like to know is:</p> <p><strong>Is it okay to use a local script to redirect to your Google+ user profile? (i.e. will it affect the PageRank of already indexed page or have any other unforeseen negative effects on new and indexed pages?)</strong></p></li> <li><p>Why do I not see more people linking with Google’s “prettified” version:</p> <p><a href="http://profiles.google.com/clarky.y2k?rel=author" rel="nofollow">http://profiles.google.com/clarky.y2k?rel=author</a></p> <p><strong>Are there any drawbacks to using the “prettified” version of this method?</strong></p></li> </ol> <p>Ideally, I would like to use the intermediate PHP script, as I have already described above (see part 1). However, any tips, suggestions or other ways you may have implemented on your websites are very welcome! </p>

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).
