I have experimented with the current capability of phpmyadmin with stored procedures, triggers, routines and events. As this project aim to create an user friendly interface in phpmyadmin I have some ideas to improve it and also some questions.<br>
<br>Currently phpmyadmin supports the above mention features of mysql only with sql queries. While creating procedures with &quot;;&quot; in between delimiter have to be changed. My view is why the user have to take care of it. We can pass some default delimiter to PMA_sqlQueryForm with the delimiter added to our query. So for that I suggest to create separate query box to deal with those things and this would be in a tab &quot;Routines&quot; for each database. It can even be better if we display the list of routines in the database page (the page one gets by selecting a database) and also the names of the trigger associated with a table when we browse it.<br>
<br>Again as <a href="http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/alter-procedure.html">ALTER PROCEDURE</a>, <a href="http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/alter-function.html">ALTER FUNCTION</a> does not allow us to change the parameters or the body, we can make a interface to change its parameters and body. We can program such a way it automatically drops it and create it with the same name with the modified changes.<br>
<br>Are my ideas meet the needs of phpmyadmin. Please let me know and suggest to make it better.<br><br>With regards,<br>Samiran Raj Boro<br>SF nickname: <a href="https://sourceforge.net/users/srajbr">srajbr</a><br>IRC nickname: samiran<br>
