[Phpmyadmin-devel] Not supported CSS-Commands
by Michael Keck 20 Feb '06

20 Feb '06

Hi Devels, I'm prepearing some themes for the PMA version 2.7 / 2.8. Some styles and classes are moved and some things are replaced with css-commands wich aren't not supported by all browsers. Example: Internet-Explorer (the most used browser by non profis) can't handle the css-command content. Better: use in php-files '<span class="spacer"> </span>' or what ever, instead of using '<span class="tab">SQl</span>' and then to put in css: tab { content: ']'; } IE can't this (perhabs other some browsers too) I think, we should take a note on some css-commands wich aren't supported by most used browsers. I've seen that Sebastian have done a lot last weeks, perhabs it may help me, if he may be able to contribute a list of current used css-styles, css-ids and css-classes. So I can remove all old things. (Many thanks ;) Perhabs it may be good too, if some css could be set via javascript (especially if any browser doesn't support one needed css-command).

[Phpmyadmin-devel] always include db and table names in generated querys
by Sebastian Mendel 20 Feb '06

20 Feb '06

Hi, while working on bug #1431615 'Exporting specific rows from query with join' i wonder if it would be wise to always include db and table names in references used in queries generated by phpMyAdmin? i think it does no harm to add this, and it is more secure as it is absolutely sure what column is meant by this query, especially with delete queries - if ever in error a wrong database is selected before delete query is executed. -- Sebastian

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Webpage: CVS and Wiki
by Sebastian Mendel 20 Feb '06

20 Feb '06

Hi, was there ever any discussion about using a wiki for phpMyAdmin homepage? I think this will make it more easy to contribute documentation, faq, hints and help, especially in foreign languages. On the other hand we are somehow limited in design, but i think (up to date) information is more important than design! At least the documentation. And is it possible to check the current webpage into the cvs? ... and update it from there on a automatically basis? -- Sebastian Mendel www.sebastianmendel.de www.sf.net/projects/phpdatetime | www.sf.net/projects/phptimesheet
