Hi Tyron,
You sent your reply only to me, it's best to answer to the developers mailinglist. That way, you will get more reactions to your remarks.
Kind regards,
Dieter

Originally I was thinking of putting each status section table into its own jQuery tab, but I realize that wouldn't really help with anything. When I think of typical use cases such as:
- looking up a particular value
- checking for error values (the ones which are currently marked red)
...it probably would be more useful to have all values in one table and offer some 'find as you type' feature. Meaning, you get a textbox where you can type the name, and when you e.g. type 'c', you get all values that contain a word that starts with 'c'. So these values for example would be shown: Innodb_pages_created, Threads_connected, Created_tmp_files
And then I'd add one select list to filter by category and another to filter for bad values (the ones currently marked as red). If all values are loaded at the beginning, like it is now, the find-as-you-type feature would be without delay / really fast.
Opinions/Ideas?
I will try to implement this, if there are no objections.
No objections from me.
I guess you will implement this using JS/AJAX? What will the behaviour of the status page be when JS is disabled on the browser, or when AJAX is disabled by the config option?
Interesting, I didn't know you could disable AJAX. In what cases you wouldn't want to have AJAX?
When filtering the list, I just plan to iterate through the single elements and hide/display when they match the given filter. So no AJAX request is used there. However probably one good idea is to add a 'Refresh'-Link to load the newest values. That could be done via AJAX if it is enabled, otherwise I can let it degrade to a ordinary static link.
When JS is off altogether, it will just display all the values and hide the filter options. I'm not sure if it is worth the effort to build an old-style filter options form for people without JS, are there many PMA users with JS off?
Thanks for the hints.
Kind regards,
Dieter
