[Phpmyadmin-devel] Making database operations tab more compact

Hi all, Currently the database operations tab is organized in such a way that all the operations can't be seen in one screen and vertical scrollbars are added to the page due to this. I suggest we organize the database operations tab in a similar way to table operations tab, where the operations are listed in two columns. What do you all think? A patch for this lies at https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3292121&group_id=23067&atid... . Please check that out. I have also attached a screenshot of the new db operations tab here. -- Thanks and Regards, Madhura Jayaratne

I agree that the current way is not compact enough and we should use divs to enclose the blocks. As a side note: people with a wide screen (not me) may not like the current disposition of table operations either, which is "forced" in two columns by enclosing each block in a div, making it float to the left, setting a min-width of 48% and using "clear: both" to force a block to go to the left side. I haven't look at your patch yet, but maybe using jQuery's .width() could help us optimize the min-width of these divs. -- Marc Delisle http://infomarc.info

I am using a wide screen and I'm not sure I follow you when you talk about the disposition. Actually I used the same styles used in table operations (float: left, min-width: 48%, and clear: both when necessary), so the patch too might be prone to the problems you described. -- Thanks and Regards, Madhura Jayaratne

What I meant is that with a wider (and bigger) screen, two columns might not be enough to fill the screen horizontally. -- Marc Delisle http://infomarc.info
