Greetings,

the phpMyAdmin development team is pleased to announce availability of phpMyAdmin 2.5.2-rc1 (the first release candidate for 2.5.2).

Improvements:

* Preserve edited contents of the query window * Uploading of SQL when no database selected * Optional server list drop-down in left frame * "Options" tab merged in "Operations" * PDF report: paper size selection * $cfg['LimitChars'] now limits all non-numeric fields * MySQL 4.1 support: table and field charsets * Better Export functionnality, including export for big tables * Partial support for InnoDB foreign keys: PDF report, Select tab, results display * Visual editor (scratchboard) for PDF schema * Export any query in CSV, LaTeX, XML * Warning for missing length on VARCHAR

Fixes:

* MySQL 4.1 related fixes: o User was unable to edit column privileges o The table structure page sometimes displayed "Array" in the charset column o When altering the field type, the input box for the field length sometimes had a strange default value o Erroneous export of timstamp fields * Now use TRUNCATE with MySQL 4 when emptying multiple tables * Various HTML pretty printer problems * Bad display of parser bug report * docSQL and filename disclosure * Row count and DISTINCT * GD2 autodetection * Cookie: encrypt password (blowfish) * Wrong field named when exporting query results * Support for PROCEDURE ANALYSE * Security fix against bad JS code
