    <p>I have this Star Rating system right. When you click on a star it should pass a value into the function. Then using AJAX it posts it to an external PHP file. The only problem is that when it gets to the PHP file it comes as null or no value.</p> <p>I will try to echo the $_POST['vote'] variable in an alert box using AJAX and it is blank so it doesn't come back as "NULL" or "0" it's just nothing. I'm not sure where I'm losing the value because I can track it all the way to the send() function. Anyone see a problem?</p> <p><strong>HTML:</strong> </p> <pre><code>&lt;style type="text/css"&gt; #container{margin: 10px auto;width: 500px;height: 300px;background-color: gray;} #starContainer{padding-top:20px;margin:0 auto;width:150px;} .box{height:28px;width:30px;float:left;position:relative;z-index:5;cursor:pointer;} .star{background-image:url('emptyStar.png');background-repeat:no-repeat;} .starHover{background-image:url('goldStar.png');background-repeat:no-repeat;} #voteBar{float:left;height:28px;background-color:#dbd923;position:relative;top:-28px;z-index:1;} &lt;/style&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; $(document).ready(function() { $('.box').hover( // Handles the mouseover function() { $(this).prevAll().andSelf().addClass('starHover'); }, // Handles the mouseout function() { $(this).prevAll().andSelf().removeClass('starHover'); } ); }); function Cast(vote) { if(window.XMLHttpRequest) { xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); } else { xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() { if(xmlhttp.readyState == 4 &amp;&amp; xmlhttp.status == 200) { alert(xmlhttp.responseText); var json = JSON.parse(xmlhttp.responseText); } } xmlhttp.open("POST", "process.php", true); xmlhttp.send('vote=' + vote); } &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div id="container"&gt; &lt;center&gt; &lt;div id="starContainer"&gt; &lt;div class="box star" onclick="Cast(1)"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="box star" onclick="Cast(2)"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="box star" onclick="Cast(3)"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="box star" onclick="Cast(4)"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="box star" onclick="Cast(5)"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="voteBar"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/center&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>PHP:</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $vote = $_POST['vote']; $totalVoteValue = 0; $amtVotes = 1; $width = (($totalVoteValue + (($vote - $totalVoteValue) / $amtVotes)) / 5) * 150; echo $width; ?&gt; </code></pre>

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.
