    <p>I've seen some questions about sending HTML data <em>from</em> PHP <em>to</em> an HTML page, but this question is actually for the contrary (I can get HTML from PHP fine with json_encode).</p> <p>A small snippet of code that explains most of it:</p> <pre><code>savePage = function() { var pagecontents = $("#editcontents").val(); log("Attempting to save page..."); $.getJSON(docTools+"?jsoncallback=?",{action:'update', loginCookie:loginCookie, page:thisFile, newdata:pagecontents}, function(data) { if(data.response[0].answer === 'true') { log('Page'+thisFile+' was saved correctly: '+data.response[0].details); $("#editcontents, #saveedit, #canceledit").remove(); $("#bodycontents").html(pagecontents); } else { log('Failed to save page. Error (' + data.response[0].errorcode + ') : ' + data.response[0].errormessage); } }); } </code></pre> <p>FYI: log just does console.log if it exists.</p> <p>So basically what happens here is that the <strong>pagecontents</strong> variable contains HTML data, all within a <code>&lt;body&gt;</code> tag (meaning no header information if that matters). However, when I actually call this function, the log() function works fine... but the getJSON() never completes (actually, as far as I can tell it never makes it to my PHP server).</p> <p>If I replace <strong>pagecontents</strong> with just a standard string, it works fine.</p> <p>Do I need to do something akin to json_encode from javascript before sending? Something that would convert everything to html entities?</p> <p><strong>--Edit--</strong></p> <p>So I just discovered the "Net" tab in Firebug and it's showing me something I hadn't realized: it shows the GET request with all the proper data... But the server returns a 404. I don't know how that could happen since the PHP file is the same one that I grab stuff from 5 seconds before.</p> <p>Also, even though I tried to change .getJSON() with .post(...,'json') , Firebug is still showing a GET request, not a POST, so it's got me even more confused now.</p>

    1. COHow long is the actual string? JSONP is a GET request, so there are limits you'll run into there.

    2. COAh, I see what you're getting to, you may be on to something. In this instance the code comes up to 3632 characters, which is fairly long (and not the longest I will have to send). Since getJSON doesn't do post, I may have to dig deeper...

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.
