    <p>I am trying to use the value of a drop list as the the name of the next function. The string is correct and shows in an alert. Also writing the name explicitly in the code does work. But using parts from the variable in the scope of both functions does not work at all.</p> <pre><code> Drupal.behaviors.smart_inventory = { attach: function(context, settings) { // this should be in the scope of both functions var selecttype; $('#select-voc-content_types', context).change(function () { contenttype = $( this ).val(); secondary = $('#' + contenttype); if($(secondary).length &gt; 0) { // set the select list. tried an alert and the variable string is set selecttype = '#select-voc-' + $( this ).val(); $('.group-types').show(); $('#' + contenttype).show(); $('#object-ajax-form').hide(); } else { $('#object-node-form-message').show(); $.post('smart_inventory/ajax', { "node-type": contenttype }, frmDrupal); } }); // this does not respond as jquery does not accept the string as an element name // or maybe the variable is not available here? $( selecttype, context ).change(function () { var nodetype = $( this ).val(); $('#object-node-form-message').show(); $.post('smart_inventory/ajax', { "node-type": nodetype }, frmDrupal); }); var frmDrupal = function(responseText) { $('#object-ajax-form').show(); $('#object-ajax-form').html(responseText); $('#object-node-form-message').hide(); } } </code></pre> <p>};</p> <p>If found that this works! But is nesting a function good practice? or good enough? ;</p> <pre><code> Drupal.behaviors.smart_inventory = { attach: function(context, settings) { var selecttype; $('#select-voc-content_types', context).change(function (selecttype) { contenttype = $( this ).val(); secondary = $('#' + contenttype); if($(secondary).length &gt; 0) { // set the select list selecttype = '#select-voc-' + $( this ).val(); $('.group-types').show(); $('#' + contenttype).show(); $('#object-ajax-form').hide(); } else { $('#object-node-form-message').show(); $.post('smart_inventory/ajax', { "node-type": contenttype }, frmDrupal); } $( selecttype , context ).change(function () { var nodetype = $( this ).val(); $('#object-node-form-message').show(); $.post('smart_inventory/ajax', { "node-type": nodetype }, frmDrupal); }); </code></pre> <p>});</p>

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).
