[Phpmyadmin-devel] Problems in Sprites implementation
by Rouslan Placella 30 Sep '11

30 Sep '11

Hi there, I find that there are a number of problems with the current implementation of the CSS sprites in phpMyAdmin. So I took the time fix them and I'd appreciate some feedback on this. First of all, adding/removing icons to/from the sprites, as described in the Wiki[1] is a cumbersome manual process. So I've created a shell script, "scripts/generate-sprites", that completely automates this process (requires ImageMagick). This script is also called from "create-release.sh" for good measure. Another issue is that PMA is not aware of the presence of the sprites. This means that all themes for older versions of PMA won't display any icons, since PMA will just blindly apply the new sprites classes (which don't exists in these older themes) to icons. Also, developers are required to pass an extra argument to "PMA_getIcon()" to indicate that a particular icon is not available as a sprite. This IMO should be avoided. To fix these issues I created two new function, both are called "PMA_getImage()". One is for PHP and another is for JavaScript. These functions read data that is generated by the "generate-sprites" script and make PMA aware of which icons are available as sprites and which ones aren't for every theme. The code is available for scrutiny in the "sprites" branch of my public repo [2]. So, if there are no objections, I will merge with master in a few days time and update the relevant Wiki page to reflect this change.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] can you reproduce this bug?
by Marc Delisle 25 Sep '11

25 Sep '11

Hi, In the 3.4 family (QA_3_4) running on my test server, when testing the Designer and clicking on "Show/hide left menu", nothing happens except that my Firefox 6 console complains about a Content Security Policy violation. On the same server, trying version 3.5 (master) works fine. Both version have in libraries/header_http.inc.php the line that emits a X-Content-Security-Policy header. In 3.4, if I remove this line, all works fine. -- Marc Delisle http://infomarc.info

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Proofreading request
by Tyron Madlener 24 Sep '11

24 Sep '11

Hello guys, This may not be entirely related to phpMyAdmin, but I still hope I can get some help here :) I'm using the Google Summer of Code Project as my bachelor's thesis and I've gotten request from my mentor that it should be proofread by other persons than me. So I'd be really glad if some would find the time to fly over my paper and let me know what I've messed up ;-) The paper is available here: http://www.tyron.at/tmp/thesis.pdf (not entirely finished yet) Thanks a lot, - Tyron

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Should $cfg['PropertiesIconic'] = true be applied globally?
by Madhura Jayaratne 15 Sep '11

15 Sep '11

Hi all, In PMA 3.5, $cfg['PropertiesIconic'] = true has been applied to 'Query results options' section and even to the fieldset legend of 'Bookmark this SQL query' section (Pls see the attached screenshots). Should $cfg['PropertiesIconic'] = true be applied globally? Or should it only be applied to "db and table properties links (like 'Browse', 'Select', 'Insert', ...)." as per documentation. -- Thanks and Regards, Madhura Jayaratne

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Dismissable ajax messages
by Rouslan Placella 14 Sep '11

14 Sep '11

Hi there, I think that there is a problem with the current implementation of the PMA_ajaxShowMessage() function. The issue is that it has a fixed 5sec timeout. For error messages I think that it's too little, but for info messages it's way too much. I remember someone already mentioning here on the list this exact problem (though can't remember who or when). I wrote a patch [1] that increases the ajax message timeout to 10s and offers the users the possibility to dismiss any ajax message. With this patch applied, the user is shown a tooltip when hovering a notification, which lets him/her know that by clicking on the notification, it will be removed. However this tooltip is hidden when the user hovers over a link or a button, since by clicking one of those the user will actually follow the link rather than dismissing the notification (which I think would be the expected behaviour). I'd like to merge this commit to master branch, so please let me know what you think. Rouslan [1]: http://repo.or.cz/w/phpmyadmin/roccivic.git/commitdiff/dd566ec76c0e182f6367…
