[Phpmyadmin-devel] Point in not being able to edit fields ('binary - do not edit') bug - or 'feature'?

Maybe another point I might have missed... But both with the current CVS version - and the LV code I'm experiencing problems while trying to edit a record ie. mysql.user - the first 3 fields - Host, User and Password is marked as char(60) binary as Type and then I'm not able to edit the values... That really annoys me, as I really would like to be able to edit those fields (and I don't think that its phpMyAdmins job to restrict that)... But as mentioned in subject - is there a point in this behaviour, is it a feature or is it really a bug? (running on PHP 4.0.6 with MySQL 3.23.39 on RH6.2) -- Kind regards Geert Lund

Geert, It looked like a good idea to protect real binary content from being edited, but there are editable fields with binary attribute that should be editable. 2 options I see: - only put a warning and let the user edit - check if the field content is printable Marc Geert Lund - SilverSoft Productions a écrit :
