    <p>If you're getting it from the database, you probably want to do this on the server side, and add those elements in your HTML; not with jQuery.</p> <p>However, why use <code>&lt;span&gt;</code> elements? The keyword in your title and your question I've seen is <em>list</em> - yet there is no use of (my <em>favorite</em> HTML elements!) <code>&lt;ul&gt;</code> or <code>&lt;ol&gt;</code>.</p> <p>What server-side language are you using? I'll assume PHP... when you read the comma separated list out of the DB, turn it into a list, and then use CSS to add commas. You can do that with a <code>background-image</code> of a comma, or with a CSS <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/CSS/css_pseudo_elements.asp" rel="nofollow noreferrer">pseudo-element</a> and the <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/Css/pr_gen_content.asp" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>content</code></a> property.</p> <h2>Example</h2> <p>In a PHP server-side script:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $readFromTheDB = "foo, bar, mon, key, base, ball"; $list = $keywordsArray = array_map('trim', explode(',', $readFromTheDB)); echo "&lt;ul&gt;"; $oddEven = true; foreach($list as $listitem) { $class = ($oddEven?"odd":"even"); echo "&lt;li class=\"".htmlentities($class)."\"&gt;".htmlentities($listitem)."&lt;/li&gt;"; $oddEven = !$oddEven; } echo "&lt;ul&gt;"; ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>Then in your CSS file:</p> <pre><code>ul li { background:url(path/to/images/comma.png) BOTTOM RIGHT NO-REPEAT; display:inline; } ul li.even { font-weight:bolder; } </code></pre>

    1. COInteresting solution. Probably semantically preferable, but seems like a bit of heavy lifting for a simple problem. Also, it doesn't seem like $oddEven does anything besides stay at 1?

    3. CO... but the underlying idea to add the elements and the class server-side isn't heavy; I think it's a much better solution than using JavaScript to do it.

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.
