    <p>I want to use jQuery UI dialog box to open a form dialog where one can edit information about an employee.<br /> The form looks like this</p> <pre><code>&lt;form id="formAddNewRow" action="/frontend_dev.php/test/create" method="post" &gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;label for="employee_firstname"&gt;Firstname&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="employee[firstname]" id="employee_firstname" /&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;label for="employee_lastname"&gt;Lastname&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="employee[lastname]" id="employee_lastname" /&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;/tbody&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>I want to load the form elements prefilled with the employees data. eg </p> <pre><code>&lt;label for="employee_lastname"&gt;Lastname&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="employee[lastname]" value="Miller" id="employee_lastname" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>So my idea was to ajax a complete form that fits the selected employee and replace it with the one above.</p> <pre><code>&lt;form id="formAddNewRow" action="/frontend_dev.php/test/create" method="post" &gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;label for="employee_firstname"&gt;Firstname&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="employee[firstname]" value="Miller" id="employee_firstname" /&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;label for="employee_lastname"&gt;Lastname&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="employee[lastname]" value="Tom" id="employee_lastname" /&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;/tbody&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>I try doing that by</p> <pre><code>$( ".editButton" ) .button() .click(function() { var replace = $.ajax({ url: 'employee/edit?id=1', success: function() { $( "#formAddNewRow" ).replaceWith(replace.responseText); } }); }); </code></pre> <p>This works, but it stops working when I do:</p> <pre><code>$( "#formAddNewRow" ).dialog({}); </code></pre> <p>There is no error message or warning. The form just gets eliminated from the DOM together with its parent node that was inserted by dialog().</p> <p>How do I prefill the form succesfully?</p>

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).
