    <p><code>Array.prototype.slice.call(arrayLikeObject)</code></p> <p>is the standard way to convert and an array-like object to an array. </p> <p>That only really works for the <code>arguments</code> object. To convert a generic object to an array is a bit of a pain. Here's the source from <a href="http://documentcloud.github.com/underscore/docs/underscore.html#section-29" rel="noreferrer">underscore.js</a>:</p> <pre><code>_.toArray = function(iterable) { if (!iterable) return []; if (iterable.toArray) return iterable.toArray(); if (_.isArray(iterable)) return iterable; if (_.isArguments(iterable)) return slice.call(iterable); return _.values(iterable); }; _.values = function(obj) { return _.map(obj, _.identity); }; </code></pre> <p>Turns out you're going to need to loop over your object and map it to an array yourself. </p> <pre><code>var newArray = [] for (var key in object) { newArray.push(key); } </code></pre> <p>You're confusing the concepts of arrays and "associative arrays". In JavaScript, objects kind of act like an associative array since you can access data in the format <code>object["key"]</code>. They're not real associative arrays since objects are unordered lists.</p> <p>Objects and arrays are vastly different. </p> <p>An example of using underscore:</p> <pre><code>var sortedObject = _.sortBy(object, function(val, key, object) { // return an number to index it by. then it is sorted from smallest to largest number return val; }); </code></pre> <p>See <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/Raynos/rNvFy/1/" rel="noreferrer">live example</a></p>

    1. COCan I sort an associative array in Javascript? Assuming the values in the keys are sortable (the key names are text, but the values are numbers.)

    2. CO@user184108 nope. There is no native sort for this. Take a look at underscore.js which implements functionality like [`_.sortBy`](http://documentcloud.github.com/underscore/#sortBy) Either use underscore or write a small library to do this for you.

    3. COUh... this whole thing went way over my noob head. I've downloaded the underscore code... so I can use underscore to convert my object to an array, and then sort on that array...?

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).
