[Phpmyadmin-devel] Interested in AJAXify Interface project idea

Hi Marc, > Please checkout "master" instead. > > I have then re checkout the "master" and checked for the functionality of the search option. > > One area that needs improvement is Database search: > - collapse/expand the "Search in database" fieldset > - separate popup when clicking on Browse in the search results, to avoid > losing the search results; the same for Delete (especially when a Delete > attempt fails) > > When I tried to search using PMA it gives unexpected UI panel repeating within the result window. I check it with the version 3.3.7 and in that it works fine. Here is the link which I have showed the screen shots of the results which I get. Here the "Tab navigation bar [1]" and the "Search in database[2]" panels showed twice. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eEEgOemO8uhkzAw_aFYOSwHDKYZeiLRPuVDjAHx… I'm Using Ubuntu 10.10 as the os, apache-2.2.16 as the server and using a symlink to the phpmyadmin folder and Google chrome as the browser for testing this. Can you clarify whether this is a bug. > > Are you familiar with jQuery? > > Last few days I went through some jQuery tutorial and now having some basic knowledge on it. So I'm willing to start working on the improvements you have mentioned. Are there any standards which should I follow in PMA UI designing. I will start working on the task of -collapse/expand the "Search in database" fieldset. But in the -separate popup when clicking on Browse in the search results, task needs a better structure. So may I draw a wire-frame for that UI, so you can correct me if it needs any modification.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Interested in project ideas for GSoC 2011
by Madhura Jayaratne 27 Mar '11

27 Mar '11

Hi All, When I was looking at the 'Idea List' for GSoC 2011, I came across two project ideas that interest me. I would like to know more about these ideas, so I would be able to focus on one specific project idea. The first project idea I'm interested in is 'OpenGIS support' [1]<http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2011_Ideas_List#OpenGIS_support>. As a first step I went through the MySQL documentation on 'Spacial Extension' [2]<http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/spatial-extensions.html>. I would like to know a rough outline of the features that is expected to be implemented under OpenGIS support. The second project idea that caught my interest is 'phpMyAdmin_OOP' [3]<http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2011_Ideas_List#phpMyAdmin_OOP>. Undoubtedly, when implemented this would help the life of developers much easy. I would like to know the expected scope of this project. Further I would appreciate if you could direct me to any articles or documentation I should read with regard to this. [1] http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2011_Ideas_List#OpenGIS_support <http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2011_Ideas_List#OpenGIS_support>[2] http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/spatial-extensions.html <http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/spatial-extensions.html>[3] http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2011_Ideas_List#phpMyAdmin_OOP <http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2011_Ideas_List#phpMyAdmin_OOP> -- Thanks and Regards, Madhura Jayaratne

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Multiple "Change Password" Windows
by Kasun Lakpriya 08 Mar '11

08 Mar '11

Hi all, While I was trying to fix the existing PmaSeleniumPrivilegesTest.php I noticed something like this and I am not sure this is a bug or not. When I click on "Change Password" button each time a new "Change Password" window is created and in the newly created windows (after the original window) there is no "Generate Password" field in them and at the same time a new "Generate Password" field is being added to the original "Change Password" window. And since the new windows are being created on top of the original one I can't see the "Generate Password" field in them. Here are some screen shots what I am getting, After clicking several times : http://i.imgur.com/bX0HX.png Original window looks like this : http://i.imgur.com/M3JZo.png And I am in Ubuntu 10.10 and running PMA on xampp and the browsers are Firefox and Chrome. -- Thanks and Regards, Kasun

[Phpmyadmin-devel] GSoC 2011
by Michal Čihař 02 Mar '11

02 Mar '11

Hi all as application period is over, I've updated https://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2011_Application to match current questions. The form is more or less same as last year, the only major difference being vouching for other organizations. But I don't think it applies much to us. So please check the application again, so that I can submit it soon. -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://phpmyadmin.cz

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Theme survey results
by Michal Čihař 01 Mar '11

01 Mar '11

Hi all as the survey is now closed, it's time to publish results. I've done so on my blog so far: http://blog.cihar.com/archives/2011/03/01/phpmyadmin-theme-survey-results/ Short summary: pmahomme clearly wins as default theme (49%), second is Graphite (21%), third Original (15%) 66% of responders want to have two themes in download kit 40% of people who want two themes prefer Original to be second theme, 23% pmahomme, 20% Graphite I can provide detailed data for analysis and I will probably dig deeper into data tomorrow as well. PS: I think announcement on website can wait till we actually change the default theme. -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://phpmyadmin.cz

Trying to fix the problem causing this error message, "Your PHP MySQL library version 5.1.54 differs from your MySQL server version 5.5.7. This may cause unpredictable behavior." Any help would be appreciated. Should I update the MySQL library version on the web server? How do I update the MySQL library version? Installed on the Linux web server - PHP version 5.3.5, Apache 2.2.3, MySQL Client API 5.1.54, MySQLi 5.1.54 MySQL 5.5 installed on seperate DB server. Regards, Michael

In the wiki it says that to open it in a browser but nothing happen when I did that. Please correct me if I am doing something wrong. Few ideas I have in my mind about testing. Testing module | |__core-code testing | |_PHPUnit tests * | |__Interface testing |_selenium/other interface testing scripts ** |_converted PHP tests from above *** * - contains all the core function tests for code. ** - Here we can have scripts and run them as appropriate in the browser itself. *** - Here we can have PHP tests so that we can test as PHPUnit tests. Another thing is, here we can have some grouped tests like, for example, AllAjaxifiedInterfaceTests.php, so that we can run this test suite to test once Java-script enabled and once disabled. Like wise we can group any possible scenarios. These are few ideas I have, please correct me and add all of your comments if I am wrong. > -- > Met vriendelijke groet / Regards, > > Herman van Rink > Initfour websolutions > > > -- Thanks and Regards, Kasun

[Phpmyadmin-devel] New to development !
by Prasanth Gangaraju 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

Hello, I am Prasanth. I am new to this list, but would like to get myself involved with phpmyadmin development as I wish to apply for GSoC. I have used phpmyadmin for 2 years now. I love it very much. I am good at php, javascript [including jQuery]. So, I think it will be of use in development. Since, I am new to development, it would be great if someone pointed me to a place to start development. Thanks Prasanth
