    <p>I have just started to learn <code>nodejs</code> and faced the problem that in <code>Express</code> framework i can't load simple HTML files. </p> <p>My projects structure is like this:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zcASh.png" alt="structure"></p> <p>In assets are two extra folders: <code>js</code> and <code>css</code> which contains files. My <code>server.js</code> file looks like this:</p> <pre><code>module.exports.start = function(config) { var express = require(config.MODULES_DIR + 'express'), app = express(), http = require('http'), server = http.createServer(app), io = require(config.MODULES_DIR + 'socket.io').listen(server), fs = require('fs'), path = require('path'); server.listen(config.APP_PORT); // Setting static files dir to load it automatically app.use(express.static(config.ROOT_DIR + '/assets/')); console.log(config.ROOT_DIR + '/assets/'); app.get('/', function (req, res) { res.sendfile(dir + 'index.html'); }); } </code></pre> <p><code>config.ROOT_DIR + '/assets/'</code> returns <code>/Sites/node_project/assets/</code> which is the exact location of files. To be 100% sure i run <code>ls /Sites/node_project/assets/</code> and it returns <code>css js</code>, but still when i open <code>http://192.168.1.109:4935</code> i get only <code>index.html</code> with no <code>js</code> or <code>css</code>… If i try to open directly some file, for example css i get <code>Cannot GET /assets/css/jquery.mobile.css</code>…</p> <p>What i'm doing wrong?</p> <p><strong>UPDATE</strong></p> <p>Found the solution, it should be like <code>app.use('/assets', express.static(config.ROOT_DIR + '/assets/'));</code></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.
