    <p>I'm having trouble with the jQuery serialize() function.</p> <p>In context, I'm opening a form and checking for changes made to it, so when the form loads, I serialze the data and assign it to a global variable:</p> <pre><code>form_data.edit_initial = $('#edit-job-form').serialize(); </code></pre> <p>That works fine.</p> <p>Then when I come to click a button to leave the form, it performs this check:</p> <pre><code>var start = form_data.edit_initial; var end = $('#edit-job-form').serialize(); if (start == end) { // Do button action } else { // Open confirm dialogue } </code></pre> <p>ANYWAY. Both serialize() functions work, but the second one has converted apostrophes etc into a series of numbers and percentage symbols (Which i can safely assume is some code for apostrophe).</p> <p>Any ideas why? It means even when no changes are made, the dialogue opens and moans that the form's been changed without saving.</p> <p><strong>Help!</strong></p> <p>Here's some sample data.</p> <p>I am using a CKEditor instance.</p> <p>Part of the first result:</p> <pre><code>&amp;edit_time_digital=60&amp;edit_desc=%3Cp%3E%0D%0A%09They'd+like+the+share+their+site+incase+people+want+to+see+their+entire+collection+of+furnature.%3C%2Fp%3E%0D%0A%3Cp%3E%0D%0A%09The+site+needs+the+following%3A%3C%2Fp%3E%0D%0A%3Cul%3E%0D%0A%09%3Cli%3E%0D%0A%09%09Home+page%3C%2Fli%3E%0D%0A%09%3Cli%3E%0D%0A%09%09Standard+pages%3C%2Fli%3E%0D%0A%09%3Cli%3E%0D%0A%09%09Galleries+(By+category)%3C%2Fli%3E%0D%0A%09%3Cli%3E%0D%0A%09%09Contact+page%3C%2Fli%3E%0D%0A%09%3Cli%3E%0D%0A%09%09News+listings%3C%2Fli%3E%0D%0A%3C%2Ful%3E%0D%0A%3Cp%3E%0D%0A%09It+should+be+a+very+simple+generator+build.%3C%2Fp%3E%0D%0A&amp;edit_status=active` </code></pre> <p>and the second:</p> <pre><code>&amp;edit_time_digital=60&amp;edit_desc=%3Cp%3E%0D%0A%09They%26%2339%3Bd+like+the+share+their+site+incase+people+want+to+see+their+entire+collection+of+furnature.%3C%2Fp%3E%0D%0A%3Cp%3E%0D%0A%09The+site+needs+the+following%3A%3C%2Fp%3E%0D%0A%3Cul%3E%0D%0A%09%3Cli%3E%0D%0A%09%09Home+page%3C%2Fli%3E%0D%0A%09%3Cli%3E%0D%0A%09%09Standard+pages%3C%2Fli%3E%0D%0A%09%3Cli%3E%0D%0A%09%09Galleries+(By+category)%3C%2Fli%3E%0D%0A%09%3Cli%3E%0D%0A%09%09Contact+page%3C%2Fli%3E%0D%0A%09%3Cli%3E%0D%0A%09%09News+listings%3C%2Fli%3E%0D%0A%3C%2Ful%3E%0D%0A%3Cp%3E%0D%0A%09It+should+be+a+very+simple+generator+build.%3C%2Fp%3E%0D%0A&amp;edit_status=active </code></pre>

    1. COWhy don't you just compare each form control's current value to its default value? If they're different, it has been changed.

    2. CODo you mean `serialize()` returns two different values depending on when you call it, even if you don't change any control value in the form?

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
