[Phpmyadmin-devel] Suggestion for browser mode improvement

In the table view of a database it would be awesome if you could select multiple tables with SHIFT and CTRL like you can in classical list. Just had a case here where I needed to drop 18 tables requiring me to click 18 times.

I agree, it would be very useful. -- Piotr Przybylski

I also agree. Since it is related with my GSoC project, I think I will do this after the main proposed project finished. -- Aris Feryanto

Done in my git. The demo will be available soon at [0]. One disadvantage on applying shift+click: we cannot make a text selection. Should we apply the shift+click? Is it benefits more than being able to select a text? I checked on ymail and gmail, they also don't provide any way to do selection in shift+click enabled list. P.S.: I saw that we actually already have shift+click handling, but applies only when we shift+click in the checkbox and it is still buggy + not marking rows correctly, so I replaced this.

Hmmm, I tried a few other pages like db operations and db search; text selection is lost everywhere. Can't you apply the shift-click logic just on the pages where shift-click is possible? Then we would not lose text selection everywhere.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense. http://p.sf.net/sfu/splunk-d2d-c2 _______________________________________________ Phpmyadmin-devel mailing list Phpmyadmin-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/phpmyadmin-devel

Done in my git. Now the text selection will be disabled only inside shift-click enabled table. -- Aris Feryanto
