    <p>This works: The jist is that the page uses ajax to call a script, which will deliver XML of the values you need, and will then populate those fields accordingly. :</p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"&gt; &lt;html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /&gt; &lt;title&gt;Untitled Document&lt;/title&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;script&gt; function updateFields(itemname){ var xmlhttp; if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); } else {// code for IE6, IE5 xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() { if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 &amp;&amp; xmlhttp.status==200) { var xmlDoc=xmlhttp.responseXML; var iQdata=xmlDoc.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("ITEMQUANTITY"); var rQdata=xmlDoc.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("REMAININGQUANTITY"); var sDdata=xmlDoc.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("STOCKSDISPATCHED"); var iQ=iQdata[0].firstChild.nodeValue; var rQ=rQdata[0].firstChild.nodeValue; var sD=sDdata[0].firstChild.nodeValue; document.getElementById("itemQuantity").innerHTML=iQ; document.getElementById("remainingQuantity").innerHTML=rQ; document.getElementById("stocksDispatched").innerHTML=sD; } } xmlhttp.open("GET","quantity_script.php?itemname="+itemname,true); xmlhttp.send(); } &lt;/script&gt; &lt;form method="post" action="restore_stocks.php"&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Item Name:&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;select name="itemname" onchange="updateFields(this.value)"&gt; &lt;?php $item="SELECT item_name FROM stocks"; $itemresult = @mysql_query($item)or die ("Error in query: $query. " .mysql_error()); while($row=@mysql_fetch_array($itemresult)){ echo "&lt;OPTION VALUE=".$row['item_name']."&gt;".$row['item_name']."&lt;/option&gt;"; } ?&gt; &lt;/select&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Item Quantity:&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;div id="itemQuantity"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Remaining Quantity:&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;div id="remainingQuantity"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Stocks Dispatched:&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;div id="stocksDispatched"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Add Stocks:&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input name="addstocks" type="text" size="25" maxlength="25" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input type="submit" name="Submit" id="Submit" value="Restore" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>And then you'd also make a script on your site "quantity_script.php" that would be something like the following:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php //include your DB connection info $itemname=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["itemname"]); $item="SELECT ".$itemname." FROM stocks"; $itemresult = mysql_query($item); $row=mysql_fetch_assoc($itemresult); header('Content-type: text/xml'); echo "&lt;ROOT&gt;"; echo "&lt;ITEMQUANTITY&gt;".$row["item_quantity"]."&lt;/ITEMQUANTITY&gt;"; echo "&lt;REMAININGQUANTITY&gt;".$row["rem_quantity"]."&lt;/REMAININGQUANTITY&gt;"; echo "&lt;STOCKSDISPATCHED&gt;".$row["stocks_dispatched"]."&lt;/STOCKSDISPATCHED&gt;"; echo "&lt;/ROOT&gt;"; ?&gt; </code></pre>

Querying!

 
Guidance
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).
