Hi all
currently our documentation for upcoming developers is spread over
different places:
[1] FAQ 7.3 in Documentation
[2] Developers section in Documentation
[3] http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/devel.php
[4] wiki
What I'd like to do is to move most information to website [3], with
possible more detailed information on wiki [4] and removing almost all
content from Documentation [1],[2].
Currently it is quite hard to keep the information up to date [*] and I
don't think it makes much sense to provide information in the
documentation for offline usage as you would anyway require to be
online to contribute.
I've just submitted pull request for this change on github, so feel
free to comment it there:
https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/pull/1
[*]: I think that [2] will become really outdated on our way to 4.0.

Hi,
I am volunteer to remove, from the master branch, support for this
feature which does not seem to be popular in the community.
Any objection?

Hi,
During the recent team meeting (February 5, 2012), we discussed about
the long term development effort for the phpMyAdmin project. Here are
the conclusions.
Removal of frames
Frames won't be used anymore (they separated the navigation panel from
the main panel). Instead, a single page will be presented, with various
parts dynamically reloaded with AJAX. This will require JavaScript to be
enabled in the browser.
Code base refactoring
The code base will be cleaned up using refactoring. The goal is to
remove the mix of HTML and PHP and produce code easier to maintain. Some
parts will move to OOP, but we decided against switching to a framework.
New features
We currently do not plan any major new functionality for this version.
Browser requirement
Looking back, version number was bumped to 3.0 when new system
requirements (PHP 5.2, MySQL 5.0) were introduced. Therefore, version
number will go to 4.0 to accentuate the new browser requirement of
having JavaScript active.
The team
When creating a view in phpmyadmin on yahoo business I need to know the corrct syntax to return text. Below are two examples of an If statement and a case statement that return an Integer. Both of these views work correctly. There are also three examples of an If statement to return text and three examples of case statements to return text. None of these six examples work correctly even when using using single quotes, double qoutes or no quotes at all. Please review all of the below examples and let me know what is happening that the select statement changes.
SELECT If(Month(Now())=2,555,999)
works correctly
SELECT case Month(now()) when 2 then 555 else 999 end
works correctly
SELECT If(Month(Now())=2,'Feb','Oth')
changes the select statement to:
SELECT If(Month(Now())=2,\'Feb\',\'Oth\')
and gives error:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '\'Feb\',\'Oth\')' at line 5
SELECT If(Month(Now())=2,"Feb","Oth")
changes the select statement to:
SELECT If(Month(Now())=2,\"Feb\",\"Oth\")
and gives error:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '\"Feb\",\"Oth\")' at line 5
SELECT If(Month(Now())=2,Feb,Oth)
gives below error:
#1054 - Unknown column 'Feb' in 'field list'
SELECT case Month(now()) when 2 then 'Feb' else 'Other' end
changes the select statement to:
SELECT case Month(now()) when 2 then \'Feb\' else \'Other\' end
and gives error:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '\'Feb\' else \'Other\' end' at line 5
SELECT case Month(now()) when 2 then "Feb" else "Other" end
changes the select statement to:
SELECT case Month(now()) when 2 then \"Feb\" else \"Other\" end
and gives below error:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '\"Feb\" else \"Other\" end' at line 5
SELECT case Month(now()) when 2 then Feb else Other end
gives below error:
#1054 - Unknown column 'Feb' in 'field list'
