    <p>This has little to do with ColdFusion specifically, and more to do with a very common Ajax design pattern. You've got most of it right; here's the general idea:</p> <ol> <li><p>User clicks <code>[delete]</code>.</p></li> <li><p>A JavaScript handler function sends the ID of the item to be deleted to your <code>delete_item.cfm</code> handler on the server. <em>Example:</em></p> <pre><code>$('a.deletelink').click( function(e){ e.preventDefault(); $.ajax({ url : '/handlers/delete_item.cfm', data : $(this).data('id'), type : 'post', success : /* see below */ }); }); </code></pre></li> <li><p><strong>On the server, another function retrieves an updated view of the region of the page affected by the change -- now without the deleted item.</strong> <code>delete_item.cfm</code> calls this function and returns the updated view information to the Ajax requester. This could take the form of:</p> <ul> <li>The raw data, perhaps in the form of a JSON string, or...</li> <li>A fully rendered HTML version of the region to be re-drawn.</li> </ul></li> <li><p><strong>In the <code>success</code> handler of the Ajax call, the updated view information is received.</strong> You then:</p> <ul> <li>Loop over the JSON data and build the appropriate HTML in JavaScript, then drop it into your container area (perhaps using a templating engine), or...</li> <li>Drop in the fully rendered HTML as supplied from <code>delete_item.cfm</code>, replacing the older version that originally contained the item you're deleting. </li> </ul> <p><em>Example:</em></p> <pre><code>/* success handler from above */ function(data){ // data is what's returned from delete_item.cfm // Assuming it's fully rendered HTML post-deletion: $('#container_of_your_list') .html( data ) // drop in new data .effect('highlight',{},2000); // visual feedback to user } </code></pre></li> </ol>

    1. COMuch more in-depth answer than mine, even though mine was still correct :). Ken should get the answer for this one.

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.
