    <p>I have been looking at JSONPath and though it seems pretty well done, I wonder if anyone has worked with it and can comment on its usability, or can recommend alternatives? What would be <em>really</em> slick is if there was a plugin for JQuery that did something like this. I have been searching the plugins and coming up empty handed. Anyway, before I spend time getting to know JSONPath (which has some aspects I am not keen on), or before I reinvent wheels, I thought I'd see if anyone had an angle on this...</p> <p>To give you an idea what I mean, imagine this Javascript object:</p> <pre><code>var Characters=[ { id: "CuriousGeorge", species:"Monkey", mood: "curious", appendage: [ { type: "hand", side: "left", holding: [ { id: "Banana" } ] }, { type: "hand", side: "right", holding: [] }, { type: "foot", side: "left", holding: [] }, { type: "foot", side: "right", holding: [ { id: "YellowHat" }, { id: "Keys" } ] } ] }, { id: "ManInYellowHat", species: "Human", mood: "angry", //...ok, you get it... } ] </code></pre> <p>Wouldn't it be great to get to of some of the deeper objects by something like Jquery selectors?</p> <pre><code>var banana=SomeUtility("Characters holding #Banana").get(0); var leftHands=SomeUtility("Characters appendage[type=hand][side=left]").get(); </code></pre> <p>(This may qualify for worlds corniest code example, but hey, my kids just watched this. And I can't use real example because of NDA...)</p> <p>...And, to make it more interesting, if I were to create such a thing, would anyone use it?</p>

    3. COInteresting question. An XPath equivalent for JSON would be a great thing, though the implementations I looked at (JSONPath and dojox.json.query) seem to use their own syntax for some reason I don't understand.

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.
