    <p>I have a jQuery search that gets a search term from the user and queries a mySQL DB via php in order to populate a div (with flashcard-like questions and answers). This works perfectly well. I am also using a jQuery toggle function to try to hide the answer until the word "Answer" is clicked. This also works fine as a standalone, and with text already on the html page - however, it won't work on the text populated in from the search, even though the div id's etc seem fine. Somehow the toggle function can't act on the searched text. Here is the code: </p> <p><strong>HTML: index.php</strong></p> <pre><code> &lt;html lang="en"&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;meta charset = "utf-8"&gt; &lt;title&gt; JQ Instant Search&lt;/title&gt; &lt;link rel ="stylesheet" type = "text/css" href = "css/style.css"&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; Start Search: &lt;input id = "search" type = "text"/&gt; &lt;div id="search_results"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript" src = "js/jquery.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript" src = "js/search.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;h4 id="question1"&gt;Question 1 - Which animal barks?&lt;/h4&gt; &lt;ol&gt; &lt;li&gt;1. Giraffe &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;2. Worm &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;3. Dog &lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ol&gt; &lt;div class="explain"&gt;&lt;a href="#" id="b" class="comment"&gt;Answer&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="commentboxb" class="commentbox" style="display:none"&gt;The answer is 3. Anyone should know this&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>JS: search.js</strong></p> <pre><code> $('#search').keyup(function() { var search_term = $(this).val(); $.post('php/search.php ', { search_term: search_term}, function(data){ $('#search_results').html(data); }); }); $(document).ready(function() { $('#commentbox').hide(); $('a.comment').click(function() { var id = $(this).attr('id'); $('#commentbox' + id).toggle(200); return false; }); }); </code></pre> <p><strong>PHP: search.php</strong></p> <pre><code> &lt;?php require 'connection.php'; if (isset($_POST['search_term'])){ $search_term = mysql_real_escape_string(htmlentities($_POST['search_term'])); if (!empty($search_term)) { $search = mysql_query("SELECT `question`, `ans1` FROM `quiz` WHERE `question` LIKE '%$search_term%'"); $result_count = mysql_num_rows($search); $suffix = ($result_count != 1) ? 's' :''; echo '&lt;p&gt;Your search for &lt;strong&gt;' , $search_term, '&lt;/strong&gt; returned &lt;font color="red"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;' , $result_count, '&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt; result', $suffix , '&lt;/p&gt;'; echo '&lt;div id="wrap"&gt;'; $i=0; while ($results_row = mysql_fetch_assoc($search)) { echo '&lt;p&gt;' , $results_row['question'] ,' &lt;/p&gt;'; echo '&lt;div class="explain"&gt;&lt;a href="#" id="',$i,'" class="comment"&gt;Answer&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'; echo '&lt;p&gt;&lt;div id="commentbox',$i ,'" class="commentbox" style="display:none"&gt;',$results_row['ans1'],'&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;'; $i=$i+1; } } } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>mySQL Table:quiz</strong></p> <pre><code> question *ans1 what sound do cows make? moo where is London?

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).
