In my application I listen to the Google Maps API 'bounds_changed' event to send an ajax request to update some div on the webpage depending on the new boundaries of the map: <pre><code>google.maps.event.addListener(map, 'bounds_changed', function() { // here goes an ajax call } </code></pre> The event 'bounds_changed' is fired with a high frequency when the user drag the map around. So much that there are too many ajax requests sent to the server. Basically I would like to make the ajax call only after the user has stopped to move the map during some time period (for example 500ms). I am not very experienced with Javascript and tried to achieve this with setTimeout and clearTimeout but without success. Any idea would be appreciated :)

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.
