    <p>So, I have to create a simple search box. In my right container I have made a search box like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div id="searchContainer" class="cf sb"&gt; &lt;div class="right magnifier"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;input class="right" type="text" id="searchBox" placeholder="search"/&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>In the main container I have multiple objects of the class newsItem.</p> <pre><code>&lt;div class="newsItem cf sb br"&gt; &lt;div class="closeButton right"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="titles left"&gt; &lt;div class="Title"&gt;&lt;h3&gt;{{Title}}&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="Subtitle"&gt;&lt;h5&gt;{{Subtitle}}&lt;/h5&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;div class="imageContainer"&gt;&lt;img src={{URI}} alt="" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="newsText"&gt;&lt;p&gt;{{Text}}&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>Now, the search box, after entering some text in it and clicking the magnifier icon, should search the titles and the content of every object in the main container and remove those objects that don't have the searched text in them. If the search box is empty when clicking the magnifier, all the objects that have been removed should reappear. I have tried with the following jQuery function:</p> <pre><code>$("#searchContainer").on("click", "#searchContainer .magnifier", function() { var text=$("#searchBox").val(); var string=$(".newsItem .Title").text(); var string2=$(".newsItem .newsText").text(); var m=string2.search(text); if(text === "") { $(".newsItem").fadeIn(); } else if(text.length !== string.length || string.indexOf(text) !== 0) { if(m&lt;0) { $(".newsItem").fadeOut(); } } }); </code></pre> <p>but nothing happens after clicking the magnifier. I'm probably using the wrong selectors since I'm a complete beginner. Any help to make it work would be really appreciated.</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.
