    1. COThis will display all the data in my SQL, how do I get it to display only what matched what I searched for. Like when I searched for: $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `PropertyInfo` WHERE `sitestreet` LIKE '$street'");

    2. CO@Jason You can put your own sql query in the `$sql` variable. The one provided in the sample is purely for demonstration.

    3. CO@Denis Thanks, I've got it working now with my own sql query. I am only displaying about 5 fields/columns of data. When I select the check box next to the order I want, I know how to get the form action to work, but how do I get the data from the one that I checked to carry over to the next page. I am displaying 5 rows/columns of info, but after I select the order I want and are redirected to a new page, I want all say 40 columns/fields from my DB for that order displayed. How can I accomplish that?

Querying!

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

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