[Phpmyadmin-devel] GPL and Apache licenses
by Marc Delisle 17 Dec '06

17 Dec '06

Hi, I have received some code that would make sense merging, but it uses a library that is licensed under the Apache license (v2). Now, the fun part is that the position of the Apache Foundation: http://www.apache.org/foundation/licence-FAQ.html#GPL differs from the position of the FSF: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#GPLIncompatibleLicenses about the compatibility of the two licenses. Has someone ever dealt with a case like this? (You remember that we removed some non-GPL code in 2006 from our code base.) Marc

[Phpmyadmin-devel] insert/update row with file contents
by Sebastian Mendel 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

Hi, is there an option to select a file from a user directory to be filled into a field? if so, than tbl_replace_fields.inc.php handles this, but it uses move_uploaded_file() on this file, did anybody test this this? does this work? move_uploaded_file() should only work on files uploaded by form ... -- Sebastian Mendel www.sebastianmendel.de

[Phpmyadmin-devel] bug in MYSQL40 compatibility mode
by Marc Delisle 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

Hi, I wonder if we should stop to offer the MYSQL40 mode in export, or at the very least display a big warning about it. In this mode, MySQL creates a dump that removes the auto_increment clause for the primary key! Marc Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 358345 to server version: 5.0.21-standard mysql> show create table bug1607282; CREATE TABLE `bug1607282` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `description` varchar(100) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 mysql> set sql_mode=MYSQL40; mysql> show create table bug1607282; CREATE TABLE `bug1607282` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL, `description` varchar(100) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) TYPE=MyISAM

[Phpmyadmin-devel] urlencode for POST data in tbl_change.php?
by Sebastian Mendel 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

Hi, is there any reason why the data is urlencoded when submitted with POST? tbl_change.php#222: <form method="post" action="tbl_replace.php" name="insertForm" <?php if ($is_upload) { echo ' enctype="multipart/form-data"'; } ?>> <?php echo PMA_generate_common_hidden_inputs($db, $table); ?> <input type="hidden" name="goto" value="<?php echo urlencode($goto); ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name="pos" value="<?php echo isset($pos) ? $pos : 0; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name="session_max_rows" value="<?php echo isset($session_max_rows) ? $session_max_rows : ''; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name="disp_direction" value="<?php echo isset($disp_direction) ? $disp_direction : ''; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name="repeat_cells" value="<?php echo isset($repeat_cells) ? $repeat_cells : ''; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name="dontlimitchars" value="<?php echo (isset($dontlimitchars) ? $dontlimitchars : 0); ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name="err_url" value="<?php echo urlencode($err_url); ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name="sql_query" value="<?php echo isset($sql_query) ? urlencode($sql_query) : ''; ?>" /> this is very confusing, as GET submitted data gets automatically decoded but not POST submitted data - and forcing an urldecode on not encoded data could affect the sql query content -- Sebastian Mendel www.sebastianmendel.de

[Phpmyadmin-devel] PMA AJAX UI Testing & Update
by Dougal Matthews 05 Dec '06

05 Dec '06

When I have my work in a state worth testing (I'm getting there) is there a specific way that you guys use to test updates? Also as an update, I'm looking to add AJAX to some, if not all of the following areas; Searching (similar to live search on on other sites) Inserting Records (allow inserting multiple easier etc.) AJAX backed Query builder Editing text in place for fields/tables I realise these don't really describe what i mean, but it should give most of you some idea. If i have missed out a section that you think would be really good with AJAX. Please let me know. Probably some changes will be made to that list. As many of these can be used or not be used as you all see fit in the end. I don't mind. Dougal
