    <p>I'm looking to do long polling to "push" some data down to the client and I'm also making other unrelated AJAX calls to the server in parallel with the long polling. It appears that my other AJAX calls won't complete until the long poll has received a response (either from a response or timeout). When I step through the Javascript, it appears that the 2nd AJAX request is being sent at the proper time, but the response isn't being received until the long poll request gets a response. Any idea what is going on?</p> <p>Here is the code for the long polling portion:</p> <p>Server side:</p> <pre><code> function getPlaylistTracksIfChanged($playlist_id, $numClientTracks) { $reportChange = false; for($i = 0; $i &lt; 10; $i++) { $numServerTracks = $this-&gt;PlaylistTrack-&gt;find('count', array( 'conditions' =&gt; array('playlist_id' =&gt; $playlist_id) ) ); if($numClientTracks != $numServerTracks) { $reportChange = true; break; } sleep(3); } if($reportChange) { $playlist_tracks = $this-&gt;PlaylistTrack-&gt;find('all', array( 'conditions' =&gt; array('playlist_id' =&gt; $playlist_id), 'order' =&gt; array('PlaylistTrack.position') ) ); $this-&gt;set('playlist_tracks', $playlist_tracks); $this-&gt;layout = false; $this-&gt;render('show_playlist_tracks_list'); } else { $this-&gt;autoRender = false; return 'false'; } } </code></pre> <p>Client side:</p> <pre><code>function checkForChangesOnServer() { $.post('/getResultsIfChanged/' + playlist_id + '/' + $('#sortable_tracks').children().size(), function(results) { if(results == 'false') { //alert('no change'); } else { //alert('change'); } checkForPlaylistChangesOnServer(); }); } </code></pre> <p>And a sample of another AJAX call:</p> <p>Server side:</p> <pre><code> function getLibraryTracksStartingWithLetter($user_id, $letter) { $results = $this-&gt;Track-&gt;find( 'all', array( 'conditions' =&gt; array( 'user_id' =&gt; $user_id, 'OR' =&gt; array( 'Track.artist LIKE' =&gt; $letter . '%', 'Track.name LIKE' =&gt; $letter . '%' ) ), 'order' =&gt; array('case when Track.artist = "" then 1 else 0 end', 'Track.artist', 'Track.name') ) ); $this-&gt;set('results', $results); $this-&gt;layout = false; $this-&gt;render('show_library_results_list'); } </code></pre> <p>Client side:</p> <pre><code> function loadLibraryResultsForLetter(letter) { highlightLetterFilter(letter); $.post('/getLibraryTracksStartingWithLetter/' + user_id + '/' + letter, function(results) { updateLibraryResults(results); }); } </code></pre>

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.
