Re: [Phpmyadmin-devel] Two problems...

Hi again!
How about allowing an environment variable such as PMAMULTICONFIG that specifies what config_*.inc.php3 file should be used? That way multiple config files can be supported under the same codebase and the config file could be specified with SetEnv or in the Web Properties of whatnot.
Most of the time the "SetEnv" function is disabled on shared servers, isn't it?

I mean the SetEnv Apache directive, not the putenv() PHP function. -- Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams <ignacio@openservices.net> "As far as I can tell / It doesn't matter who you are / If you can believe there's something worth fighting for." - "Parade", Garbage

Yes, I'm aware of that. Which is why my original post mentioned environment variables in general, not just in relation to Apache :) -- Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams <ignacio@openservices.net> "As far as I can tell / It doesn't matter who you are / If you can believe there's something worth fighting for." - "Parade", Garbage
