    <p>In SVG it is possible to define a pattern that can be used as the fill for a path. For an example of what I mean you can check this link: <a href="http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/samples/pattern1.svg" rel="nofollow">SVG pattern example</a>. Unfortunately SVG is not usable in older versions of Internet Explorer, so I'll have to work with VML there.</p> <p>To make my life a little more easy I use Rapha&euml;l JS (to be more specific, I use the draw package of ExtJS 4.0, which is based on Rapha&euml;l), so I don't have to worry about the differences between SVG and VML.</p> <p>Raphael JS however, does not provide a way to define patterns and use them, so I'll have to do this by hand. In SVG this is not much of a problem, but in VML I cannot find a way to create a pattern and use it as the (repeating) background of a path.</p> <p>The closest thing I have found is the ability to use an image as the background of a path, as described <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb264135%28v=vs.85%29.aspx#Pattern%20fill" rel="nofollow">here on MSDN</a>. The problem is I want to fill the path with a repeating vector image, so I can scale it and still have it look nice.</p> <p>Any help in pointing me in the right direction for solving this would be greatly appreciated.</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> For people visiting my post: I've come to the conclusion that what I describe above is not possible. The only patterning possible in VML is tiling an image, using a <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-VML#_Toc416858394" rel="nofollow">fill element</a>. Patterns made of vector shapes are not possible in VML.</p>

    1. COAre you saying that you want to use an SVG image inside a VML shape?

    2. CONo that is not what I mean, I'm sorry for being unclear on that. What I want is to use a pattern of VML shapes as the background for a VML shape, just as it is possible to use SVG shapes (defined in a pattern) as the fill for an SVG shape.

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.
