    <p>I'm creating a theme options page for my new theme and I set up some radio buttons to change the style when a user clicks each button. After saving the changes, it is supposed to add a stylesheet to the header of the theme. It is not working correctly. I assume that my switch statement might be written incorrectly. I'm using WordPress's Settings API. Below is most of the code in question.</p> <pre><code>function mxs_admin_init() { register_setting( 'mixinstyles_theme_options', 'mixinstyles_theme_options', 'mixinstyles_options_validate' ); add_settings_section( 'mixinstyles_main', 'Mixin&amp;apos; Styles Settings', 'theming_section_text', 'mixinstyles' ); add_settings_field( 'custom_style_buttons', '&lt;strong&gt;Color Schemes&lt;/strong&gt;', 'custom_style_buttons', 'mixinstyles', 'mixinstyles_main' ); } ... function mxs_theme_options_page() { ?&gt; &lt;div class="wrap" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"&gt; &lt;div id="icon-themes" class="icon32"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Mixin' Styles Theme Options&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;?php if($_REQUEST['settings-updated'] == 'true') { echo '&lt;div id="message" class="updated fade"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mixin&amp;apos; Styles options saved.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'; } ?&gt; &lt;form action="options.php" method="post" name="options_form"&gt; &lt;?php settings_fields('mixinstyles_theme_options'); ?&gt; &lt;?php do_settings_sections('mixinstyles'); ?&gt; &lt;div style="text-align: center; padding: 20px;"&gt;&lt;input name="Submit" class="button-primary" type="submit" value="&lt;?php esc_attr_e('Save Changes'); ?&gt;" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;?php } ... function custom_style_buttons() { $options = get_option('mixinstyles_theme_options'); echo "&lt;div class='radiobutton-wrap'&gt; \n"; echo "&lt;div class='radiobutton-padding'&gt; \n &lt;input type='radio' id='default_style' value='default_style' name='mixinstyles_theme_options[custom_style_buttons]' /&gt;&lt;img src='" . get_bloginfo('template_directory') . "/images/default_screenshot.png' alt='Default style' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;label for='default_style'&gt;Default Style&lt;/label&gt; &lt;/div&gt; \n"; echo "&lt;div class='radiobutton-padding'&gt; \n &lt;input type='radio' style='padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px;' id='blue_orange' value='blue_orange' name='mixinstyles_theme_options[custom_style_buttons]' /&gt;&lt;img src='" . get_bloginfo('template_directory') .

"\n";'; break; default: echo ''; } //closes switch statement } </code></pre> <p>In the header theme template, I'm calling the style switcher like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $mxs_settings = get_option('mixinstyles_theme_options'); echo $mxs_settings['mxs_style_switcher']; ?&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.
