My idea was to introduce something like context help in phpMyAdmin. I'd also add those ? icons to the interface, but instead of jumping to an anchor in the documentation I'd prefer to display a short (maybe even localized) text in a JS window that tells the user more a bout a specific interface element. I'd also offer this context help for popular error messages i.e. if the MySQL server refuses the username / password.
I definitely support this idea of context help, using the /lang files.
I don't think that we need to change the format of those files, for context help.
I'd like to seperate the help texts from the normal messages maybe by changing the variable prefix: we'd use $helpSomething instead of $strSomething for instance.
still on the beach?
Yes, I'll stay in Greece until August 3rd :-)
