    <p>As long as I can remember, I've make a great effort to do things the proper way. Well, what I consider the proper way to be anyway.</p> <p>Now I feel that it is time to get some very important questions answered once and for all.</p> <p>All who swear to XHTML will, sooner or later, stumble upon the quote: "unless you serve the right MIME type, you document will be interpreted as regular HTML"</p> <p>Say what? I've created a perfectly sound XHTML document, following all the standards and stuff. What have I done wrong? What have I missed?</p> <p>As far as I understand it, it's a server thing for the most part, so of course I've investigated that too, and it would seem that the PHP function header() is the answer to the problem.</p> <p>Yay, then all is good. Well no, in fact it's not, because no matter how much I search the net, I am simply unable to find consistent information about how to go about the problem and when I do find something remotely relevant, it's all about browser comparability and such.</p> <p>Let it be said as clearly as possible.</p> <p>I so not care about browser computability. (not at this point anyway)</p> <p>All I really want is receive the XML type epic fail message if I've made a mistake and of course of course the knowledge about how I actually make this happen.</p> <p>In short, I want to part with the SGML way and embrace the XML way, and I want to be able, without even the tiniest bit of doubt, to say that this document is valid XML/XHTML and is interpreted as such.</p> <p>My thought is that I can simply require the XHTML document in question, via a PHP script, and send it of with a proper MIME type, but how it is actually done is still a mystery due to conflicting information on the net.</p> <p>I do hope that someone will be able to supply the answer I'm looking for, preferably with links to the relevant information to back it up. If you can do this for me, I will be forever grateful.</p> <p>Best regards.</p> <p>Edit: I can't say that I understand why or how, but at least I found a way to make it act as it should, simply by adding: to the top of a regular xhtml document, of course changing the filetype to PHP to actually make it run the script.</p> <p>I'm quite sure that this is not the end of the story, but for now I'm happy.</p>

    3. COI am not sure there is a question in this. You say you aren't worried about browser compatibility, but it is the browser the decides how to parse the document and what mime-types vary how it parses the document. Also, it is generally up to the Web Server you are using to determine the mime-type of the data (unless you set the header manually, via PHP).

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).
