Here is a patch for tuning left.php to be more style and option
friendly...any global variables that you see that are not in the
config.inc.php I have obviously added and you need to to the same if you
want to use this left.php... The easiest and must exciting change is
the addition of a title attribute to the table links (so that the table
name pops up when you fly over the table if you are using even a halfway
decent browser)...helpful for long table names.
If anyone is interested in seeing it all in action, or wants to get some
ideas about what I came up with, check out
http://65.5.154.16/phpMyAdmin/
There is no real data on the site, so just be polite and view only...
p.s. I patched the rc4 version
Enjoy!

Some more suggestions:
un-javascript your dropdown menus and have a button next to them, as
javascript support is not in all browsers.
on db_details.php3:
the text in the sum size line of the table should also get a different
color, as it's quite unreadable as is.

uh, with buttons the list (for example on my server with 140 db's)
it will become huge!
Other idea for left.php:
what about putting all db's in a <select></select>, and display
the tables list just below (with reload of the frame with the
correct infos on db change) ? Do you see what I mean ?
[ db_name ] [go]
-table 1
-table 2
-table 3
-> smaller frame (could add another frame for docs or proprieties)
-> quicker
-> less javascript -> better compatibility
Just checked the size of left.php (save as...) when loading
phpmyadmin on my server:
-rw-r--r-- 1 om users 463400 Aug 10 14:34 left.php
So I think that would be a nice improvement : when working on a
db, I usually never need to see all other db's from server.
Greetings,
Olivier

I meant the language and server dropdowns on main.php3, you
just need a
'go' button for them, instead of using the javascript. it would only be
one button per dropdown.

Several of my
projects use a couple of databases together, to keep certain
data seperate, as it comes from different sources, so while some ppl might
might this good, if there are any others like me, we might have a little
trouble.

I like the idea of the drop-down language selection, because just
showing
the iso codes can be confusing.
