    <p>I have a drop-down navigation that brings the user to the page selected in the drop-down once the user clicks a button. I have a function that takes in the page section title as a parameter and builds a new drop-down with that page on top of the list, so that each page you navigate to will remain in focus in the drop-down. The function is a massive switch case with a lot of repetitive code and I know there's an easier and cleaner way of doing this... I'm just having trouble thinking of a solution. Here's a code snippet, I won't post the entire switch case:</p> <pre><code>function makeDropDown($page){ switch ($page){ case 'uploads': echo '&lt;center&gt;&lt;form action="pictures.php" action="get"&gt; &lt;select name="pictype"&gt; &lt;option value="uploads"&gt;Uploads&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="fromweb"&gt;From Web&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="wallpapers"&gt;Wallpapers&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="misc"&gt;Miscellaneous&lt;/option&gt; &lt;/select&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value = "Go!"/&gt; &lt;/form&gt;&lt;/center&gt;'; break; case 'fromweb': echo '&lt;center&gt;&lt;form action="pictures.php" action="get"&gt; &lt;select name="pictype"&gt; &lt;option value="fromweb"&gt;From Web&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="uploads"&gt;Uploads&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="wallpapers"&gt;Wallpapers&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="misc"&gt;Miscellaneous&lt;/option&gt; &lt;/select&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value = "Go!"/&gt; &lt;/form&gt;&lt;/center&gt;'; break; case 'wallpapers': echo '&lt;center&gt;&lt;form action="pictures.php" action="get"&gt; &lt;select name="pictype"&gt; &lt;option value="wallpapers"&gt;Wallpapers&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="uploads"&gt;Uploads&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="fromweb"&gt;From Web&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="misc"&gt;Miscellaneous&lt;/option&gt; &lt;/select&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value = "Go!"/&gt; &lt;/form&gt;&lt;/center&gt;'; break; </code></pre> <p>Any suggestions?</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.
