    <p>First of all, I am going to a be a wee bit lame-preachy and tell you that I hope you're not planning on making this interface public because you are putting your computer in serious danger of being around you. </p> <p>With that said, I get that you're having quite a bit of fun with this and are an avid experimenter, so let's see if i'm getting this clear...</p> <ol> <li>You have a database structure ( your file system ) </li> <li>You have some PHP back-end which interacts with the aforementioned database.</li> <li>This PHP back-end seems to have some sort of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer" rel="nofollow">REST-ful</a> API structure</li> <li><p>Another PHP "container" that serves as a template for the interface (and holds the javascript, tsk tsk tsk :P )</p> <p>So far, so good. We can overlook the fact that you did'nt put your javascript in separate file until you do so and we shall also overlook that you have that nasty onload statement which you will have to find a way to clean up (hint: <code>$(function(){ // some code }) == $.ready(function(){//some code }) == &lt;body onload="someCode"&gt;</code> ). Going from this, I dont quite see what your problem is, you're on the right path... you have a good-enough web 2.0 compliant MVC structure right there! </p></li> </ol> <p>jQuery is, IMHO, as other libs, first and foremost a wrapper around javascript to:</p> <ul> <li>A. simplify general aspects of common web development patterns.</li> <li>B. reduce browser deficiencies</li> </ul> <p>Depending on the intended use and restrictions of your current project, You might not need it. Nonetheless, specifically for this project, look into <a href="http://api.jquery.com/get/" rel="nofollow">.get()</a> or get serious and jump directly to learning the full <a href="http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/" rel="nofollow">$.ajax()</a>. Then for the DOM manipulation, there's the <a href="http://api.jquery.com/jquery/" rel="nofollow">jQuery('#selector')</a> and <a href="http://api.jquery.com/find/" rel="nofollow">$('#myDiv').find('.item')</a> which are probably the main things you'll use (jQuery has a special <a href="http://api.jquery.com/category/selectors/" rel="nofollow">selector syntax</a> which is from the <a href="http://sizzlejs.com/" rel="nofollow">sizzle</a> library ) and then... you'll start to love and it never want to leave it BUT....</p> <p>Be warned, you still have a long ways to go with pure javascript even though you might not realize it at the moment. Relying on jQuery could eventually turn you into a jQuery-dependent plugin fiend and that would just be sad. Ever hear of <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/En/DOM/Document.querySelectorAll" rel="nofollow">document.querySelectorAll()</a> ? The <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/FileAPI/" rel="nofollow">HTML5 File API</a> ? </p> <p>Dont get me wrong, I am also in Montreal and use jQuery on a daily basis!</p>

    2. CO(I just lose all my comment :() Since i discover body onload in 2001, i hate it... so a couple of hours ago i discover the $.ready() jQuery function.... :) Thanks for saying im on the right path.. but what is MVC? (**shy**) As you said, im not in need of jQery but i saw what it can do and it make a really good GUI experience for the user (and god know how its important in 2010).. ill take a look at these functions (selectors) and i never heard about HTML5 File API and document.querySelectorAll() but ill try to understand these functions.

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.
