I'll have a look at this asap but as far as I remember these are 2 different cases indeed. NB: the version I've sent you this morning does not have such a problem ;) >Anything else pending before package&release ? Yep: I've just fixed the bug #456254 - Crash select on a table. Wait a minut and I'll update the CVS tree.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] bug with the cfgLimitChars toggle
by Loïc 30 Aug '01

30 Aug '01

If you browse a table that contains only one record, the function that displays the navigation bar isn't called then the button to toggle between full text/limited to n chars text isn't displayed.

Re: RE: [Phpmyadmin-devel] "too many fields" bug solved by magic?!?!?
by Eugenia Loli-Queru 30 Aug '01

I don't think the bug is solved. It is there, but depends how much RAM you have in your PC it will show depending on how many table fields you add (it seems to be a RAM/no of fields problem). >The bug report in phpwizard forum talked about creating more than 14 fields >under IE5.5: the controls were non functional and there was an out of memory error. Exactly. Check the screenshot: http://www.intelligentfirm.com/eugenia/php-bug.jpg It highlights the problem. Please note the bug is reproducible with IE5 and IE5.5. I upgraded to IE6 just yesterday and the bug *remains*. The bug can also be seen with Netscape 4.x under certain circumstances. At the moment that IE is trying to render all these drop down menus, the machine becomes a hog. Too many resources are used, too much memory and CPU. Trying to load EVEN notepad, you get an "out of memory" error, as seen in also in the screenshot after trying to load Opera5. Closing down IE or switching to another web page, almost frees the memory and the OS becomes usable again. The bug is certainly reproducible with Win98 and IE5.5/6. I haven't tried it with Win2k. My machine is a dual Celeron 533 Mhz with 256 MB of SDRAM. Eugenia --- Editor in Chief @ www.OSNews.com

Sorry Olivier because I wanted to send a post to the m-l about the [+] thing rather than send you mail... Too much stress. >I must say I don't like it the way it is now. The goal by >showing only 30 chars was to reduce the page size (displayed, >but also in kbytes). >And now if everything is back again as javascript, the benefits >is 100% lost. Right. >Suggestion: better would be the same link (looks good with >that "+"), but which would open a SELECT 'field' from table >where ..., which would only show that field. -> nicer, ability >to print it, and size of browse table ok. Really hard to do (and at the condition of loosing the cut in kb transmitted) if there is no primary key or if the primary key is ... the text field itself. >Don't know if that is possible in 1-2 hours :) If not, I'd suggest to >get back to last version. (just IMHO of course...) -> Let's get back. Loïc

[Phpmyadmin-devel] new login/logout problem
by Marc Delisle 29 Aug '01

29 Aug '01

Hi, Got a new bug with latest cvs. Start Netscape 4. Login with a normal user. Logout. Login with a super-user. I only see the databases of the normal user. Click Reload: ok I see all the databases. Logout Login with a normal user. No databases shown on left frame. JavaScript Error: http://www.CollegeSherbrooke.qc.ca/si/php/phpMyAdmin/left.js, line 105: theLayers[i] has no properties. JavaScript Error: http://www.CollegeSherbrooke.qc.ca/si/php/phpMyAdmin/left.js, line 144: expandedDb is not defined. ------------------------------------------------------------- No bug with IE 5.0. Is this caused by the new "USE mysql" test? Marc

Re: [Phpmyadmin-devel] create database: no check on the name ?

Hi List! Marc wrote: > I have the same behavior while Netscaping. Loïc must be IEing :) I can't face this problem (with db name `fadfdppö 'fa'fdax`) neither with IE5.5, neither with Opera 5.0, neither with NS4.75, neither with Moz 0.9.3. Maybe it's OS dependant ? (mine is win98 SE) BTW I found an urlencode call was missing for the drop db link at the bottom of db_details.php3. Fixed into the CVS tree.

Marc is right: this is a valid db name since MySQL 3.23.6. Moreover I've done some extented tests and phpMyAdmin seems to handle this database name very well :) Loïc ______________________________________________________________________________ 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
