    <p>The HTTP specification (<a href="http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616.html" rel="noreferrer">RFC 2616</a>) has a number of recommendations that are applicable. Here is my interpretation:</p> <ul> <li>HTTP status code <code>200 OK</code> for a successful PUT of an update to an existing resource. No response body needed. (Per <a href="http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html#sec9.6" rel="noreferrer">Section 9.6</a>, <code>204 No Content</code> is even more appropriate.)</li> <li>HTTP status code <code>201 Created</code> for a successful PUT of a new resource, with the most specific URI for the new resource returned in the Location header field and any other relevant URIs and metadata of the resource echoed in the response body. (<a href="http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.2.2" rel="noreferrer">RFC 2616 Section 10.2.2</a>)</li> <li>HTTP status code <code>409 Conflict</code> for a PUT that is unsuccessful due to a 3<sup>rd</sup>-party modification, with a list of differences between the attempted update and the current resource in the response body. (<a href="http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.4.10" rel="noreferrer">RFC 2616 Section 10.4.10</a>)</li> <li>HTTP status code <code>400 Bad Request</code> for an unsuccessful PUT, with natural-language text (such as English) in the response body that explains why the PUT failed. (<a href="http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.4" rel="noreferrer">RFC 2616 Section 10.4</a>)</li> </ul>

    1. CO@stian Interesting! That seems pretty presumptuous on the part of Mozilla, since I can find nothing in RFC 2616 (notably sections [10.2 Successful 2xx](http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.2) and [10.2.1 200 OK](http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.2.1)) that specifically rule out the use of `200` for PUT, DELETE, or any other method. Did I miss something? Such as Mozilla becoming the boss of W3 and the IETF? ;) Or maybe they've just never heard of Postel's Robustness Principle.

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).
