    <p>I need the onkeyup to fire more than once, but it seems to be only firing once!</p> <p>When I enter something into the input box, it searches, but then whenever I backspace and search something else, the div stay's the same..</p> <p>Here is my code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; function suggest1() { var dam_text = document.getElementById('dam').value; if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); } else { xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject('MicrosoftXMLHTTP'); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() { if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 &amp;&amp; xmlhttp.status == 200) { document.getElementById('myDiv').innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText; } } var target = 'dam_search.php?dam_text=' + dam_text; xmlhttp.open('GET', target, true); xmlhttp.send(); } &lt;/script&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="dam" id="dam" onkeyup="suggest1();"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;div id="myDiv"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>Here is dam_search.php</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php //connect to db stuff here if (isset($_GET['dam_text'])) { $dam = $_GET['dam_text']; getSuggest($text); } function getSuggest($text) { $sqlCommand = "SELECT `name` FROM `table1` WHERE `name` LIKE '%$dam_text%'"; $query = mysql_query($sqlCommand); $result_count = mysql_num_rows($query); while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) { echo $row['name'].'&lt;br /&gt;'; } } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>ALSO: I am wondering how I can put the return of the name's it has searched into a dropdown from the input box instead of into the div, so when I click on one of the names, it auto fills the input box.</p> <p>Thank you!</p>

    1. COWhen you say it only fires once. What exactly do you mean - it only fires once each time a key is released, or it only fires once for the page, or perhaps something else?

    2. COFires once on each browser load. So, I type "a" and it loads everything with "a" in it, and then when I type a "b", it doesn't fire again. I have to reload the browser for it to reset so it can fire again.

    3. COHmm, that's more than a little odd. I usually use the AjaxRequest library (http://ajaxtoolbox.com/request/) since it handles multiple parallel requests effortlessly and is much, much lighter than jQuery, which I have no interest in - I'd thought the ajax stuff may have been falling over, but have also cobbled together a functional example from your code. The php is a bit funky - I'm guessing this isn't a copy'n'paste, but rather a look'n'retype problem. I would put the results into an array and then return it as JSON. You can then load and use the elements in the array in any way you please.

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).
