    <p>I have a question to ask.</p> <p>I have a search result that is based on data retrieved from MySQL database. And based on the data retrieved, I have embedded and echo a div and <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> tag to know which <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> is been clicked so that I can use searchresult_details.php to retrieve more details using ajax jQuery.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php //include database connection file to call the class include('dbconn.php'); //db global connection $db = new DBConfig(); $db -&gt; config(); $db -&gt; conn(); //retrieve the keyword entered in the form in search.php $keyword = $_POST['keyword']; //call searchKeyValue method to retrieve the names whether client or staff searchKeyValue($keyword); function searchKeyValue($keyword) { $result = mysql_query("SELECT result_key, result_value FROM keyvalue WHERE result_value LIKE '%$keyword%'"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ //echo $row['result_value']; //echo "&lt;br /&gt;"; echo '&lt;div style="background-color:#ffa; padding:20px"&gt;&lt;a class="record" value="' . $row['result_value'] . '"&gt;' . $row['result_value'] . '&lt;/a&gt;' . '&lt;/div&gt;'; echo '&lt;input class="tablename" type="hidden" name="tablename" value="' . $row['result_key'] . '" /&gt;'; } } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>However, the <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> will have multiple rows been echoed. I need to retrieve the <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> that is clicked and the value that it is stored in that particular <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> element. I can't be using id in <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> because I think it would be tedious. I was thinking to use class so that in javascript I can use document.getElementsByClassName but I know such function in IE has errors.</p> <p>Any recommendations?</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.
