Please use the developers mailinglist [0] for all your general questions regarding GSoC and phpMyAdmin. Did you have a look at the guidelines for GSoC applicants [1]? Regarding the 'removal of frames' idea, please also check the proposal of how this could be done [2].

I assume you had a look at the applicant guide [1] already? Regarding tasks to work on, we launched a contest [2] a few weeks ago. This way you can get an patch ready for GSoC and win a book. ;) [0] phpmyadmin-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net [1] http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2012_Applicant_Guide [2] http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/contest.php -- Kind regards, Dieter Adriaenssens

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Ajaxification of PMA
by Thilanka Kaushalya 19 Mar '12

19 Mar '12

Hi Marc, It was a great gsoc session with PMA last time. I could not contribute it for last few months(after gsoc) because I had my final year exam at university. I'm willing to continue my contribution to phpMyadmin as a non gsoccer. Are there any remaining ideas to continue with ajaxification of the PMA. If so I like to open a discussion on them and continue with them. Thank you.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] SQL feedback for Ajax actions
by Marc Delisle 18 Mar '12

18 Mar '12

Hi, not sure we discussed this previously, but shouldn't all Ajax actions respect the ShowSQL directive? The directive is respected, for example, when searching or grid-editing, but is not respected when creating a table: the CREATE TABLE syntax is not shown even if ShowSQL is true. See messages 22 and 23 in thread [0]. [0] https://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmyadmin/forums/forum/72909/topic/4015065 -- Marc Delisle http://infomarc.info

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Bit of code to contribute
by XTender 14 Mar '12

14 Mar '12

Hi, Devs. I'm no real programmer, but I did cook up a new transformation for phpMyAdmin. All it does is append a specified string to the table data. I use it to add "°F" to a field containing temperature data. Only one problem: the tooltip that appears when defining the transformation (on the Structure page) says "No description is available for this transformation…". I don't know how to fix this. The function PMA_transformation_text_plain__append_info() returns "Appends text to a string. The only option is the text to be appended (enclosed in single quotes, default empty string)." As evidence, my function does appear correctly (with its description) on the transformation_overview.php page. If you can give me a hint how to fix the tooltip I will. The function code is short enough that I'm including it here: ----------------------------------------- <?php /* vim: set expandtab sw=4 ts=4 sts=4: */ /** * @package phpMyAdmin-Transformation * ******GRL 3/13/2012 based on the "substring" transformation included w/phpMyAdmin * Has one option: the text to be appended (default '') */ function PMA_transformation_text_plain__append_info() { return array( 'info' => __('Appends text to a string. The only option is the text to be appended (enclosed in single quotes, default empty string).'), ); } function PMA_transformation_text_plain__append($buffer, $options = array(), $meta = '') { if (!isset($options[0]) || $options[0] == '') { $options[0] = ''; } $newtext = $buffer . $options[0]; //just append the option to the original text return $newtext; } ?>
