    <p>So, I'm working on a small web app and I have it to a point where I can input data into a form, click a button, and delete that data from a form. I'd like to be able to just click on the data in a table and have it do a similar function, i.e. somehow use $.post to post the data instead of making the form do it. I'm at a loss of how to do it though. I've read several tutorials and articles and am at a loss of how to replicate the form's submit functionality.</p> <p>Here's my current way of doing things via form/php:</p> <p><strong>The Form Template</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;form name="DeleteMarker" action="index.php" target="_self" method="post"&gt; &lt;fieldset class="Splice"&gt; &lt;legend&gt;Delete Marker&lt;/legend&gt; &lt;label&gt;Employee: &lt;/label&gt;&lt;select name="DEmployee"&gt; &lt;label&gt;Job Name: &lt;/label&gt;&lt;select name="DJob"&gt; &lt;label&gt;Customer Name: &lt;/label&gt;&lt;select name="DCustomer"&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;label&gt;Latitude: &lt;/label&gt;&lt;input name="DLatitude" min="-180" max="180" step="0.00001" required /&gt; &lt;label&gt;Longitude: &lt;/label&gt;&lt;input name="DLongitude" min="-180" max="180" step="0.00001" required /&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Delete" /&gt; &lt;/fieldset&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>The PHP</strong></p> <pre><code>if(isset($_POST['DEmployee'])) { $sql="DELETE FROM Splices WHERE (Employee='$_POST[DEmployee]' AND Job='$_POST[DJob]' AND Customer='$_POST[DCustomer]' AND Latitude=$_POST[DLatitude] AND Longitude=$_POST[DLongitude])"; if (!mysql_query($sql,$Splices)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } </code></pre> <p>I have a javascript function where a click on the table will display an alert, I just need to figure out how to put a $.post or $.ajax statement in there to replicate the functionality of the form I already have. </p> <p><strong>The (incorrect) javascript I have:</strong></p> <pre><code>function deleteRecord(e,j,c,l,ln) { confirm("Delete Record ("+e+", "+j+", "+c+", "+l+", "+ln+")?"); if(confirm){ $.post("index.php", {DEmployee:e, DJob:j,DCustomer:c,DLatitude:l,DLongitude:ln});; } } </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.
