    <p>I don't have experience in php. I've followed a few tutorials to modify my Drupal forms using the theme method in template.php.</p> <p>For some reason the [#weight] property for a field does not adhere to its values. I'd like to move the Category field [cid] above Subject field [subject]. These are the lines of code I used:</p> <pre><code>$form['cid']['#weight'] = 0.003; $form['subject']['#weight'] = 0.004; </code></pre> <p>When I print my array to view I see the values have changed, but when I render the form no changes are made. I have already cleared performance cache after every modification.</p> <p>If you're interested here is a snippet of my printed array:</p> <pre><code>[subject] =&gt; Array ( [#type] =&gt; textfield [#title] =&gt; Subject [#maxlength] =&gt; 255 [#required] =&gt; 1 [#post] =&gt; Array ( ) [#programmed] =&gt; [#tree] =&gt; [#parents] =&gt; Array ( [0] =&gt; subject ) [#array_parents] =&gt; Array ( [0] =&gt; subject ) [#weight] =&gt; 0.004 [#processed] =&gt; 1 [#description] =&gt; [#attributes] =&gt; Array ( ) [#input] =&gt; 1 [#size] =&gt; 60 [#autocomplete_path] =&gt; [#process] =&gt; Array ( [0] =&gt; form_expand_ahah ) [#name] =&gt; subject [#id] =&gt; edit-subject [#value] =&gt; [#defaults_loaded] =&gt; 1 [#sorted] =&gt; 1 ) [cid] =&gt; Array ( [#type] =&gt; select [#title] =&gt; Category [#default_value] =&gt; 1 [#options] =&gt; Array ( [1] =&gt; General Enquiries [2] =&gt; Support ) [#required] =&gt; 1 [#post] =&gt; Array ( ) [#programmed] =&gt; [#tree] =&gt; [#parents] =&gt; Array ( [0] =&gt; cid ) [#array_parents] =&gt; Array ( [0] =&gt; cid ) [#weight] =&gt; 0.003 [#processed] =&gt; 1 [#description] =&gt; [#attributes] =&gt; Array ( ) [#input] =&gt; 1 [#size] =&gt; 0 [#multiple] =&gt; [#process] =&gt; Array ( [0] =&gt; form_expand_ahah ) [#name] =&gt; cid [#id] =&gt; edit-cid [#value] =&gt; 1 [#defaults_loaded] =&gt; 1 [#sorted] =&gt; 1 ) </code></pre> <p>Much appreciated,</p> <p>Chris</p>

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.

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