What I'm trying to achieve is to use jQuery to mimic the behavior of the text-selection functionality you see in a typical text-editor, except instead of selecting text, I want to select multiple rows of <code><div></code>s. However, so far the only "selection" plugins I've found for jQuery operate based on a rectangular lasso model. In particular, I'm using the jQueryUI selectable plugin. To see what I'm talking about, consider the following 2 images: Default jQueryUI "selectable" plugin behavior <a href="http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/2344/selectabledefaultthumb.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/2344/selectabledefaultthumb.png</a> Ideal plugin behavior (sans the lasso) <a href="http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/5664/selectableidealthumb.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/5664/selectableidealthumb.png</a> You can also go <a href="http://jqueryui.com/demos/selectable/#display-grid" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a> to play with this exact example. Does anybody know of a plugin that achieves this? That would save me from proceeding to hack or hack around this plugin to get what I want... P/S: In my app each row will contain up to 150 or so divs, and each div will have a few divs within it. I have tried hand-rolling my own selectable but it was slow even when dealing with just a single line. I'm currently using this plugin because its much more performant than what I wrote.

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.
