    <p>I have a web app were the entire layout remains constant except for one <code>&lt;div&gt;</code>. Currently, I'm just using routes to handle links and it seems like quite a waste to reload the rest of the <code>layout.ejs</code> file where the only thing I wish to change is my <code>&lt;div&gt;</code>.</p> <p>What would I have to change in my <code>layout.ejs</code> file? Here is my current file:</p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt; &lt;html lan="en"&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt;&lt;%= title %&gt;&lt;/title&gt; &lt;link rel="stylesheet" href="/stylesheets/reset.css"&gt; &lt;link rel='stylesheet' href='/stylesheets/style.css' /&gt; &lt;script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.2/jquery.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script src="/nowjs/now.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script src="/javascripts/chat.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div id="wrapper"&gt; &lt;div id="header"&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="chat"&gt; &lt;input type="text" id="text-input"&gt; &lt;input type="button" value="Send" id="send-button"&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="content"&gt; &lt;%- body %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="rooms"&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="footer"&gt; &lt;div id="footer_links"&gt; &lt;a href="/"&gt;Home&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href="/about"&gt;About&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href="/contact"&gt;Contact&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>I was thinking about using AJAX to use this, but I've heard some good things about using partial views. I'm just not sure at all about how to set this up. Also, I've heard that it's possible to use WebSockets with partial views instead of AJAX. Is this a good idea, or even possible?</p> <p>Sorry this may be straightforward. I'm having a difficult time with the documentation.</p> <p>Thanks!</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.
