Then I'm not sure three file are required. Moreover you know how crappy is NN4 with CSS: for example a child selector rarely inherit the rules applied to its parent. In our case it means the font face may have to be repeated inside each of the selector defnition. With this is mind, I'm unfortunatly not sure a common css can be used. Actually we faced the problem with phpMyChat, that's the reason why I can detail. My suggestion is only one file (let's say 'stylesheet.php') called this way: <?php $css_url = urlencode("/stylesheet.php?fontFace=$strFontFace& textDirection=$strTextDirection"); ?> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?php echo $css_url; ?>" /> >Veni, Vidi, Conferotuli Veni, Vidi, Vinci... quid nomino leo :p (I came, I saw, I won... because I'm the Lion) ______________________________________________________________________________ ifrance.com, l'email gratuit le plus complet de l'Internet ! vos emails depuis un navigateur, en POP3, sur Minitel, sur le WAP... http://www.ifrance.com/_reloc/email.emailif

Hi, I am playing in the -devel branch to add (bit by bit) the new code, so don't be surprised if you see new things that don't work yet :) -- Marc Delisle Service de l'informatique Collège de Sherbrooke, Québec

Re: [Phpmyadmin-devel] $cfgMaxInputsize
by Loïc 21 May '01

21 May '01

Hi Marc! [About bug ] Sorry not to have replied to your previous mail: as phpMyAdmin doesn't work at all with NN4.75 for win I can't test the bug... The solution you suggest (an error message if text size > 32 ko) seems convenient IMHO. [About style="width:...] >However, it doesn't work in Netscape 4.x, but works in >IE 5. Is this style="width: " an IE extension? Nope but the implementation of CSS2 in NN4 is really crappy. About this selector itself, you may have a look at these addresses: http://www.blooberry.com/indexdot/css/properties/dimension/width.htm http://css.nu/pointers/bugs.html#NN4 Once again, your solution is the good one as far as we want to keep phpMyAdmin 'Netsbug' compliant.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] $cfgMaxInputsize
by Marc Delisle 21 May '01

21 May '01

Hi, this variable is used at some places in phpMyAdmin, in input fields and textareas: tbl_properties.inc.php3: <input type="text" name="comment" style="width: <?php echo $cfgMaxInputsize;?>" maxlength="80"> However, it doesn't work in Netscape 4.x, but works in IE 5. Is this style="width: " an IE extension? I suggest to add a variable that we could use as the COLS attribute of TEXTAREAs. -- Marc Delisle Service de l'informatique Collège de Sherbrooke, Québec

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Bug #422188
by Marc Delisle 21 May '01

21 May '01

Hi, doing research about this bug (editing large blobs), I was able to see a TEXT field of 1,030,000 bytes in the textarea. However, I can't type or modify anything in the TEXTAREA. Anyone has an idea why? PS: Netscape 4.7 -- Marc Delisle Service de l'informatique Collège de Sherbrooke, Québec

[Phpmyadmin-devel] 2.2.0pre3 / freshmeat
by Olivier M. 21 May '01

21 May '01

Hello, Just repackaged and "re-released" the 2.2.0pre3 including the latest bugfixes: just saw that somebody announced it on freshmeat this morning, but without any changes description :( Is "ZapZap" on this devel list ? Next time, please at least do a resumee of the important changes: there were lots of improvements between pre2 and pre3!

[Phpmyadmin-devel] linux+netscape scrollbar problem ?
by Olivier M. 21 May '01

21 May '01

Hello, As mentioned a week ago, with current version (pre3), even if I have lots of databases listed in the left blue frame, there is no vertical scrollbar displayed under netscape 4.76+linux, and the only way to access a non listed db is to type the url /db_details.php3?server=1&lang=fr&db=xyz_dbname. Seems ok under windows or opera, but well, we're supposed to improve phpmyadmin, not to add bugs... :) Am I the only one having this little but annoying problem? It's maybe because of the move of javascript stuff in another file ?
