I am Hasitha Abeykoon who is a final year Computer science and Engineering undergraduate from University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka.
Examining the ideas list of phpMyAdmin for GSOC 2011 on [1], I found two projects which took my sincere interest. I would like to know more information about the projects and the expected improvements with some technical details so that I can read up and choose one project to follow up.
1. The first project is “Support for Stored Procedures”. I suppose manipulating stored procedures in a nice way means improving the user Interface for the phpMyAdmin users so that they can type stored procedures, view and edit them more easily? As a first step into the project I looked into the “phpMyAdmin improve” page [2] and learnt how to use GIT and get the source code.
2. The second project I like is “User Interface Cleanup”. I have many ideas and thoughts even now which I would be pleased to see in phpMyAdmin interface.
For a project on information management of annual functions at CSE we used phpMyAdmin tool, which I felt very admirable.
Please direct me on the technologies and any documents that I need to refer in order to learn more about GUI Designing and binding between the Interface and core of phpMyAdmin.
• I’m familiar with PHP, MySQL and JAVA. • I have experiences about GUI designing by my internship at Virtusa Cooperation, Sri Lanka [3].
Think it would be nice to work with you. Thank you in advance.

jQuery and jQueryUI.
Hi Mark,
I looked into jQuery UI and jQuery platform which was available from http://jqueryui.com/themeroller/ http://jqueryui.com/themeroller/ http://jqueryui.com/themeroller/ It is actually a nice bundle of controls for web interfaces. There are many options to be played around with jQuery UI. As a start, I followed the following tutorial to build a GUI from which auto completes data as we type from the MySQL database.
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/how-to-use-the-jquery-ui-a... http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/how-to-use-the-jquery-ui-a...
Now I’m learning how to customize the standard controls available in jQuery UI and use it in the way I desire. I think if these controls were available on phpMyAdmin interface, I honestly think it would be a great way of attracting end users.
I would like to get a high level overview on how controls are bound to the code of PhpMyAdmin. I also learnt GIT and downloaded the code from SourceForge.

Hi, well phpMyAdmin generates XHTML that contains forms and links. Most form fields are just transmitted when the form is submitted; however some fields (more in the upcoming 3.4 release) are bound to jQuery or just Javascript code that deals with events, to produce a more interactive experience.
