Re: RE: [Phpmyadmin-devel] "too many fields" bug solved by magic?!?!?
I don't think the bug is solved. It is there, but depends how much RAM you have in your PC it will show depending on how many table fields you add (it seems to be a RAM/no of fields problem).
The bug report in phpwizard forum talked about creating more than 14 fields under IE5.5: the controls were non functional and there was an out of memory error.
Exactly. Check the screenshot: http://www.intelligentfirm.com/eugenia/php-bug.jpg It highlights the problem. Please note the bug is reproducible with IE5 and IE5.5. I upgraded to IE6 just yesterday and the bug *remains*. The bug can also be seen with Netscape 4.x under certain circumstances. At the moment that IE is trying to render all these drop down menus, the machine becomes a hog. Too many resources are used, too much memory and CPU. Trying to load EVEN notepad, you get an "out of memory" error, as seen in also in the screenshot after trying to load Opera5. Closing down IE or switching to another web page, almost frees the memory and the OS becomes usable again. The bug is certainly reproducible with Win98 and IE5.5/6. I haven't tried it with Win2k. My machine is a dual Celeron 533 Mhz with 256 MB of SDRAM. Eugenia --- Editor in Chief @ www.OSNews.com
Eugenia, I will try it with Win98SE when I get a chance. Under WinNT4, still can't trigger the bad bug! Just added a FAQ in Documentation.html. Marc Eugenia Loli-Queru a écrit :

For me i'v got problem with 20 SELECT-fields or more on both WIN98SE (128mb ram) and WIN98 (64mb ram). WinNT4 I can't reproduce this strange behaviour. In WIN98 there have been this problem with all the IE version 4, 5, 5.5 and 6. When I use NS it works but it gets terrible slow when i'v got lots of SELECTs... regards Elias
Under Win98SE, I also get the bug. The conclusion for now is that it's only on Win98+IE. Marc Delisle a écrit :
