    <p>I'm setting the html of the body element in an iframe to a string str, then I want to access that content on the next line (here just using an alert call to display the content) but the html and append functions haven't completed by the time the alert statement is called.</p> <pre><code>$(function(){ .... $("#notes-tab span.add_draft").bind("click", function(e){ var str = ''; $(this).parent().siblings(".tab-content").children(".para").each(function(ind) { str += $(this).find('div:first').html(); }); var curr = $("#content_rte").contents().find("body").html(); if (curr == ' ' || curr == '&lt;br&gt;') { $("#content_rte").contents().find("body").html(str); } else { $("#content_rte").contents().find("body").append(str); } alert($("#content_rte").contents().find("body").html()); }); }); </code></pre> <p>And of course neither the html nor the append functions take callbacks. </p> <p>Could someone tell me how one normally accomplishes waiting for the DOM to be changed before proceeding? </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).
