    <p>If I update a JList with a long number of html formatted items then the controls stop responding and indicators won't update. This makes sense, the event thread is busy. The title can still be set though. Why is this?</p> <p>Here's some (long) code demonstrating this:</p> <pre><code>import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException; import java.util.Timer; import java.util.TimerTask; import javax.swing.*; public class JListTest extends JFrame { class TestListModel extends AbstractListModel&lt;String&gt; { private static final long serialVersionUID = JListTest.serialVersionUID; private boolean useHtml; private String[] formattedList = new String[] {}; public int getSize() { return formattedList.length; } public String getElementAt(int index) { return formattedList[index]; } public void setUseHtml(boolean useHtml) { this.useHtml = useHtml; } public String getNewListItem() { if (useHtml) { return "&lt;html&gt;&lt;div style='padding:2px" + ";background-color:#EDF5F4;color:black'&gt;&lt;div style='padding:2px;font-weight:500;'&gt;" + "Item " + (100 * Math.random()) + "&lt;/div&gt;" + "This will change!" + "&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/html&gt;"; } else { return "Item " + (100 * Math.random()); } } public void updateItems() { formattedList = new String[] {"&lt;html&gt;&lt;h1&gt;Loading!&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;/html&gt;"}; fireContentsChanged(this, 0, 1); Thread buildItems = new Thread() { @Override public void run() { final String[] tempList = new String[3000]; for (int i=0; i&lt;tempList.length; i++) { tempList[i] = getNewListItem(); } // Just show the string bashing's done try { SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait(new Runnable() { public void run() { formattedList = new String[] {"&lt;html&gt;&lt;h1&gt;Updating!&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;/html&gt;"}; fireContentsChanged(TestListModel.this, 0, 1); } }); } catch (InvocationTargetException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (InterruptedException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } // Update SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() { public void run() { formattedList = tempList; fireContentsChanged(TestListModel.this, 0, formattedList.length); } }); } }; buildItems.start(); } } protected static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; public JListTest() { JPanel controlPanel = new JPanel(); JButton updaterControl = new JButton("Add 3000"); final JCheckBox useHtmlControl = new JCheckBox("Use HTML"); final TestListModel model = new TestListModel(); JList&lt;String&gt; list = new JList&lt;String&gt;(model); JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(list); final JLabel durationIndicator = new JLabel("0"); controlPanel.add(useHtmlControl, BorderLayout.WEST); controlPanel.add(updaterControl, BorderLayout.EAST); getContentPane().add(controlPanel, BorderLayout.PAGE_START); getContentPane().add(scrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER); getContentPane().add(durationIndicator, BorderLayout.PAGE_END); useHtmlControl.addActionListener(new ActionListener() { public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { model.setUseHtml(useHtmlControl.isSelected()); } }); useHtmlControl.setSelected(false); updaterControl.addActionListener(new ActionListener() { public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { model.updateItems(); } }); Timer counter = new Timer(); counter.schedule(new TimerTask() { @Override public void run() { String previousCounter = durationIndicator.getText(); String newCounter = Integer.toString( Integer.parseInt(previousCounter) + 1); durationIndicator.setText(newCounter); setTitle(newCounter); } }, 0, 100); } public static void main(String args[]) { JListTest jlt = new JListTest(); jlt.pack(); jlt.setSize(300, 300); jlt.setVisible( true ); } } </code></pre>

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
