Hello, I've tested a few things today, here is a little something to (re-)open the discussion :) I think it would be nice if PMA would have a simple configuration generator, like in many other projects: What about something simple like that? : http://www.phpmyadmin.net/swix_pma/setup/ Scoll to the end of the page to find the [generate] button. It's based on the orginal Documentation.html, with some special "cfgen" tags, which are simply parsed by the setup/index.php script. (look at the .html source of the original http://www.phpmyadmin.net/swix_pma/Documentation.html ) source: http://www.phpmyadmin.net/swix_pma/setup/index.phps and http://www.phpmyadmin.net/swix_pma/setup/generate.phps The generate.php script needs a special version of the config.inc.php files (with lines like: "$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = '%%blowfish_secret%%'; ") Do you think something like that would be good? Is that the right way? Feedback welcome :) regards & have a nice week-end, Olivier -- _______________________________________________________ Olivier Müller - PGP key ID: 0x0E84D2EA - Switzerland E-Mail: http://omx.ch/mail/ - AIM/iChat: swix3k
