    <p>Okay, been thrashing around with this for longer than I care to think about!</p> <p>I am trying to drag event data from mysql so that it displays the <strong>Event Name</strong> once and several products under that <strong>Event Name</strong></p> <p>For Example:</p> <p><strong>Event Name</strong><br /> product 1<br /> product 2<br /> product 3<br /></p> <p>What is currently happening is that the <strong>Event Name</strong> is displayed above each product, like this</p> <p><strong>Event Name</strong><br /> product 1<br /> <strong>Event Name</strong><br /> product 2<br /> <strong>Event Name</strong><br /> product 3<br /></p> <p>The PHP Code is:</p> <pre><code> &lt;?php // Get the search variable from URL $var = @$_GET['q'] ; $trimmed = trim($var); //trim whitespace from the stored variable // rows to return $limit=10; // check for an empty string and display a message. if ($trimmed == "") { echo "&lt;p&gt;Please enter a search...&lt;/p&gt;"; exit; } // check for a search parameter if (!isset($var)) { echo "&lt;p&gt;We dont seem to have a search parameter!&lt;/p&gt;"; exit; } //connect to your database ** EDIT REQUIRED HERE ** mysql_connect("xxxxxxxx","xxxxxxxx","xxxxx"); //(host, username, password) //specify database ** EDIT REQUIRED HERE ** mysql_select_db("event_db") or die("Unable to select database"); //select which database we're using // Build SQL Query $query = "select * from event where event_name like \"%$trimmed%\" order by event_name"; // EDIT HERE and specify your table and field names for the SQL query $numresults=mysql_query($query); $numrows=mysql_num_rows($numresults); // If we have no results, offer a google search as an alternative if ($numrows == 0) { echo "&lt;h4&gt;Results&lt;/h4&gt;"; echo "&lt;p&gt;Sorry, your search: &amp;quot;" . $trimmed . "&amp;quot; returned zero results&lt;/p&gt;"; // google echo "&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=\"http://www.google.com/search?q=" . $trimmed . "\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Look up " . $trimmed . " on Google\"&gt;Click here&lt;/a&gt; to try the search on google&lt;/p&gt;"; } // next determine if s has been passed to script, if not use 0 if (empty($s)) { $s=0; } // get results $query .= " limit $s,$limit"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die("Couldn't execute query"); // display what the person searched for echo "&lt;p&gt;You searched for: &amp;quot;" . $var . "&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;"; // begin to show results set echo "Results&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"; // now you can display the results returned while ($row= mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $title = $row["event_name"] . "&lt;br /&gt;"; $title2 = $row["location"] . " - " . $row["style_name"] . "&lt;br /&gt;"; echo "&lt;b&gt;$title&lt;/b&gt;"; echo "$count&amp;nbsp;$title2"; } $currPage = (($s/$limit) + 1); //break before paging echo "&lt;br /&gt;"; // next we need to do the links to other results if ($s&gt;=1) { // bypass PREV link if s is 0 $prevs=($s-$limit); print "&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=\"$PHP_SELF?s=$prevs&amp;q=$var\"&gt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt; Prev 10&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp&amp;nbsp;"; } // calculate number of pages needing links $pages=intval($numrows/$limit); // $pages now contains int of pages needed unless there is a remainder from division if ($numrows%$limit) { // has remainder so add one page $pages++; } // check to see if last page if (!((($s+$limit)/$limit)==$pages) &amp;&amp; $pages!=1) { // not last page so give NEXT link $news=$s+$limit; echo "&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=\"$PHP_SELF?s=$news&amp;q=$var\"&gt;Next 10 &amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;/a&gt;"; } $a = $s + ($limit) ; if ($a &gt; $numrows) { $a = $numrows ; } $b = $s + 1 ; echo "&lt;p&gt;Showing results $b to $a of $numrows&lt;/p&gt;"; ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>Any thoughts would be greatly received.</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.

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).
