New subject: [Phpmyadmin-devel] bug : bouton et liens dans l'affichage des

3 May 2003

Hi Olivier!

You could just put a primary key on your ID_msg field and the trouble would be gone.
I think in the future Nijel wants to implement checkboxes for deleting multiple
entries at once, so I guess he'll implement a different logic then anyways - I for
one would dislike seeing those huge form buttons on every page instead of hovering
links.

Maybe someone of the other developers wants to put a word on this...

Regards,
Garvin.

  my query is

 SELECT Sujet,Message FROM forum WHERE ID_msg > 1000

 but if you use a button for GET and POST you juste have to do this way

 <form method="<?php if($primary_key || $length<2048) echo 'GET';
else echo 'POST';
 ?>" action="script.php">
 <input type="hidden" name="where_condition" value="<?php
if($primary_key) echo
 $primery_key; else echo $text; ?>">
 <input type="submit" name="choice" value="Modify">
 <input type="submit" name="choice" value="Delete">
 </form>

 and no javascript is used

  Hi Olivier!

  or to take less place, a link with an onclick
attribute like this

 <a href="#null"
onclick="document.myform.submit()">Modify</a> 
 We can't use a button, because then we would have to use javascript to  submit
it via
  GET. And we don't want phpMyAdmin to be
dependant on JavaScript.

 On the other hand, if a button shows up in your table display, you're  doing
  something wrong with your table layout anyways.
Use primary keys where  possible, and
  you won't have to deal with extra length GET
methods...

 But thanks for your consideration,
 Garvin.
