'morning
As some of you told me, it would be soon the time to release a stable version of the current tree. What in your opinon must be done before ? Here a few personal ideas: please comment or add your ideas:
[ ] fix the mysql_select_db($db) problem (cf. my other post an hour ago)
[ ] fix (or if it's too much work: move to the -devel tree) the user administration routines (cf. other post)
[ ] create a FAQ file or page (look at the questions asked on http://www.phpwizard.net/phorum/list.php?f=1 : they are almost always the same...)
[ ] table view (tbl_properties) : move the "Table type:" at the end of the page, as well as the "Table comments:" input field. But display the comment (if any) under the title (Database ___ - table \n $comment)
[ ] table view (tbl_properties): move the "Select" and "Insert" links higher (before "Check table") : important functions should be higher on the page than functions used less often.
[ ] what about using bigger input fields and textareas while editing records ? Dynamicaly (if length of field < 40, show a field of the right size, otherwise show a field of size 40), or by adding 3 variables to the config file (text_field_length, textarea_rows_nb, textarea_cols_nb...)
[ ] update CREDITS, DEVELOPERS, README files
[ ] record editing: remove "insert new row" if we are not editing an entry (inserting a new one), and rename the button as "Insert as a new row" (will need a new text label I guess).
[ ] when creating a new table (table view -> create table): what about ignoring fields when the field name is empty ? When creating a table, I (and probalby others :) not always know exactley how many fields I need. What do you think? Would be more user-friendly. [ ] (low priority) add an "about phpmyadmin" page to the code, like for example http://admin.omnis.ch/admin2/?A=about (containg the most important links, feedback form, etc.)
[ ] try to contact all the translators to let them update their files... (they should all be on the translators mailing list : would be the easiest I guess).
[x] have a nice week-end :)
Cheers, Olivier

one more suggestion:
[ ] from http://www.phpwizard.net/phorum/read.php?f=1&i=3566&t=3566: I really would love to see checkboxes next to the each table, you could check beside some of the tables and then chose between drop tables or empty, cuz i have over 100 tables, and it would save TONS of time by just selecting the tables that you want to delete\empty.
Would be quite practical, but probably not so difficult to implement: the $table variable would be an array (name="table[]"). The problem would then be the confirmation...

Yes, good idea. If this is 2.2.0pre4, we don't have to add every new features asked for :) But the real bugs should be killed before the real 2.2.0.
[ ] fix the mysql_select_db($db) problem (cf. my other post an hour ago)
if it's a real problem.
[ ] fix (or if it's too much work: move to the -devel tree) the user administration routines (cf. other post)
They work well here.
[ ] create a FAQ file or page (look at the questions asked on http://www.phpwizard.net/phorum/list.php?f=1 : they are almost always the same...)
I suggest you add new feature requests for those things, I would like to do some and it's easier to see what's assigned or not.
[ ] table view (tbl_properties) : move the "Table type:" at the end of the page, as well as the "Table comments:" input field. But display the comment (if any) under the title (Database ___ - table \n $comment)

For this one, we discussed this on the devel list. Users of IE already can modify $cfgMaxInputsize, but this relies on things that are broken in Netscape 4. So I suggested adding some variables...

There is a feature request about this, with some suggestions....

ok, I'll prepare a 2.2.0pre4 today.
But the real bugs should be killed before the real 2.2.0.
that's why there are pre versions... :)

ok, will do that.

...which wouldn't be bad.

Please have a look at current stable cvs, if it looks ok I will change devel version.
I just fixed the non-english/french lang files for a missing $.
