    <p>I'm a little bit stumped with this UL I'm building. I've been able to populate the list no problem but it's all messed up when it comes to formatting. Here's my script: </p> <pre><code>$.ajax({ type: "GET", url: "/shop/assets/xml/tonneau_makes.xml", dataType: "xml", success: function(xml) { var selectInfo = $("li.selectMake"); $(xml).find('option').each(function(){ var make = $(this).attr('make'); $("li.selectMake").before("&lt;li&gt;"+make+"&lt;/li&gt;"); }); } }); </code></pre> <p>It's working beautifully. however when I go to look at it on my page and view the selection source it looks like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;ul id="MakeList"&gt; &lt;li&gt;CHEVROLET&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;VINTAGE CHEVY&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;DODGE&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;VINTAGE FORD&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;FORD&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;HONDA&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;HUMMER&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;ISUZU&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;LINCOLN&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;MAZDA&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;MITSUBISHI&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;NISSAN&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;SUZUKI&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;TOYOTA&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="selectMake"&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; </code></pre> <p>So I guess it is working, but it's not formatting the way I want it to. I want it to stop at Honda and form a new list. Right now it's extending beyond my div. </p> <p>My html is set up like this: </p> <pre><code>&lt;ul id="MakeList"&gt; &lt;li class="selectMake"&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; </code></pre> <p>It's just an empty ul and li (note, all li's are supposed to have that class)</p> <p>So not only do I need to figure out what I'm doing wrong, but I'm not sure how to get it to do what I want. I hope that all made sense! Thanks everybody! </p> <p>Edit: Here is the expected markup for this</p> <p>(I can't display floats for some reason, but imagine that the bottom UL is floating to the left)</p> <pre><code>&lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;CHEVROLET&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;VINTAGE CHEVY&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;DODGE&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;VINTAGE FORD&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;FORD&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;HONDA&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;HUMMER&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;ISUZU&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;LINCOLN&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;MAZDA&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;MITSUBISHI&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;NISSAN&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;SUZUKI&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;TOYOTA&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; </code></pre>

Querying!

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).
