    <p>I am new to java-script and have made this script to popup this custom message when a visitor submits an e-mail. However, for some reason the 'display:block' only happens after the second time the user clicks "Submit" and not after the first click. However, each subsequent time after that (unless the page is reloaded) the function works with only 1 click. The only way I have been able to make it function as desired is by adding onLoad="eSubmit" to hte body tag (essentially taking the place of the first click), but I don't want to have to do that. All applicable code I have is below... I would appreciate any help, thanks.</p> <pre><code>&lt;head&gt; &lt;style type="text/css"&gt; .alertbox{ position:absolute; top:0; left:0; width:100%; height:100%; background-color:rgba(0,0,0,.6); z-index:100; display:none; } &lt;/style&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; function eSubmit() { var msgBox = document.getElementById("msgSend"); var responseTxt = document.getElementById("thanks"); if(msgBox.style.display == 'block' || msgBox.style.display ==''){ msgBox.style.display = 'none';} else{ msgBox.style.display = 'block';} if(responseTxt.innerHTML == 'Returning to page...'){ responseTxt.innerHTML = 'Thank you for submitting your e-mail.';} } function txtChange(){ var E = setTimeout("eSubmit()",1000); var responseTxt = document.getElementById("thanks"); if(responseTxt.innerHTML == 'Thank you for submitting your e-mail.'){ responseTxt.innerHTML = "Returning to page..."; E;} } &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;input type="button" value="Send" onclick="eSubmit()"&gt; &lt;div id="msgSend" class="alertbox"&gt; &lt;div onClick="txtChange()"&gt; &lt;p id="thanks"&gt;Thank you for submitting your e-mail.&lt;/P&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/body&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.
