You don't like original colors and display, do you ? :) If it were not written, it would be hard to say it's really phpMyAdmin! Anyway, templates like in phpGroupWare would be the best way to provide easy customization, but the current design is not suitable for that. We should choose between some customization with some cfg variables and a better design allowing themes.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] error in defines.inc.php
by Dan Allen 10 Aug '01

10 Aug '01

In defines.inc.php in rc4 it tries to get the mysql version, even if the $server variable is set to 0, as it is if no default server is set to start with...simply add an if($server) around this last part of defines.inc.php Dan

[Phpmyadmin-devel] style preferences
by Dan Allen 10 Aug '01

10 Aug '01

I really think that phpMyAdmin needs more configuration variables...It is fine to go ahead and give them defaults which many people will not change, but if someone does want to tune the look, it is really difficult now. Here is a general suggestion to start out... Everytime a table is used with this code <table border="<?php echo $cfgBorder; ?>"> It should instead be <table border="<?php echo $cfgBorder; ?>" cellspacing="<?php echo $cfgSpacing; ?>" cellpadding="<?php echo $cfgPadding; ?>"> Here are my other suggestions: - Have a variable for font size (and since windows and unix handle font sizes so differently there should be OS sniffing to scale the size) - Like W3C recommends, font-sizes should be in em and not in pt - There should be more color preferences...such as link color backgrounds for hover and all that I have patches for most of this stuff, but phpMyAdmin is changing so fast I just can't get a patch made that will work with the version...obviously I need to learn CVS, but at least I can make suggestions while I am learning. Please comment on the ideas. Dan Allen

[Phpmyadmin-devel] out_buffer_pre($ob_mode);
by Dan Allen 09 Aug '01

09 Aug '01

This post is simply a request for clarification. What does the function out_buffer_pre($ob_mode) do? I am a bit confused, and all I know is that if I use galeon the main.php is not rendered at all (and the source is empty). Now, I realize that this is not a phpMyAdmin bug, but perhaps if I knew what it did, I could go over to the guys and gals at galeon and let them know what is cause the browser to break. Thanks for the time! Dan Allen

[Phpmyadmin-devel] PHPMyAdmin errors
by Dmitry Kashlev 09 Aug '01

09 Aug '01

I have a phpMyAdmin installed on the web server. When I try to delete any row (entry) in the database, I click on delete link to the right of the entry. Then I click on yes. The following string appears: Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at config.inc.php3:118) in /usr/local/web/data/sql/sql.php3 on line 94 Here's part of sql.php3: if (!$result) { $error = mysql_error(); include("header.inc.php3"); mysql_die($error); } $num_rows = @mysql_num_rows($result); if ($num_rows < 1) { // PATCH ADDITION BEGINS // if (file_exists($goto)) if(file_exists("./$goto")) // PATCH ADDITION ENDS { include("header.inc.php3"); if (isset($zero_rows) && !empty($zero_rows)) $message = $zero_rows; else $message = $strEmptyResultSet; // PATCH ADDITION BEGINS // include($goto); include(preg_replace('/\.\.*/', '.', $goto)); // PATCH ADDITION ENDS } else { $message = $zero_rows; Header("Location: $goto"); } exit; } else { include("header.inc.php3"); display_table($result); if (!eregi("SHOW VARIABLES|SHOW PROCESSLIST|SHOW STATUS", $sql_query)) echo "<p><a href=\"tbl_change.php3?server=$server&db=$db&table=$tab le&goto=sql.php3?".urlencode($GLOBALS['QUERY_STRING'])."\"> $strInsertNewRow</a> </p>"; } } require ("footer.inc.php3"); ?> What does this mean, and how to prevent that error from ocurring? __________________ Dmitry Kashlev Webmaster Bronx Science Computing

Re: [Phpmyadmin-devel] putting a @, or if (function_exists)) ?
by Loïc 09 Aug '01

09 Aug '01

Hi Marc & all! >Should we check if the function extension_loaded exists before calling >it? Or is the @ enough? '@' is not enough, you have to use "if (@function_exists('extension_loaded'))" to do the work. >And should we do this for every PHP4-specific function we find in the >code? Well, this could be a good idea but in the case of the bug report we're talking about, the problem is a bit more annoying: lots of the functions that exists in php3.0.10+ and php4.0.0 are not implemented in php4.0 beta releases. It means that you have to test each function (even php3 ones) before to use them.... Really painfull.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] ok for 2.2.0-rc4 release tomorrow ? (9Aug, 12h)
by Olivier M. 09 Aug '01

09 Aug '01

Marc voted yes, and I also think it would soon be time to release something again. So, Loic & other developpers, you have 10 hours to answer :) If I don't get a negative answer, it will prepare everything tomorrow morning.
