    <p>I'm facing this trouble.. </p> <p>I have this JavaScript code:</p> <pre><code>echo "&lt;script type=\"text/javascript\"&gt; var counter = 1; function addInput(divName){ var newdiv = document.createElement('div'); newdiv.innerHTML = \"Entry \" + (counter + 1) + \" &lt;input type='text' name='myInputs[]'&gt;\"; document.getElementById(divName).appendChild(newdiv); counter++; } &lt;/script&gt; "; </code></pre> <p>and this PHP code:</p> <pre><code>$produkty="SELECT * FROM goods ORDER BY name"; if (isset($_POST['order'])) { $name = $_POST['myInputs']; foreach( $name as $key =&gt; $n ) { print $n." thank you\n &lt;br /&gt;"; } } echo " &lt;fieldset&gt;&lt;form method='post'&gt; &lt;div id='dynamicInput'&gt; &lt;select name='idp[]'&gt;"; $vys = mysqli_query($db, $goods); while ($arr = mysqli_fetch_assoc($vys)) { echo "&lt;option value='".$arr['id_good']."'&gt;".$arr['name']."&lt;/option&gt;"; } echo " &lt;/select&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Entry 1 &lt;input type='text' name='myInputs[]''&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;input type='button' value='Add another text input' onClick=\"addInput('dynamicInput');\"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;input type='submit' name='order'&gt; &lt;/form&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt; "; </code></pre> <p>and I use it to "generate" new (html) input everytime submit is clicked.</p> <p>But I need to generate not only those (html) inputs, but also that (html) select, which processes the values from the database and show it as options in that (html) select.</p> <p>I searched a lot to find out the way to "insert" the part from <code>&lt;select ..</code> to <code>&lt;/select&gt;</code> to the newdiv.innerHTML variable, but it wasn't succesful. I find some hints that I should "parse" the PHP code in (html) select and then create variable <code>$no1 = mysqli_query($db, $goods);</code> <code>$no2 = while ($arr = mysqli_fetch_assoc($no1)...</code> ... and in the end just say JavaScript <code>newdiv.innerHTML = &lt;?php echo $no5; ?&gt;;</code> .. but there were many problems with the syntax and with the principles that discouraged me.</p> <p>Can you help me please? ;)</p>

    2. COAlso, I don't think a form element can be surrounded by a fieldset tag... rather, fieldset should be inside the form...

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.
