[Phpmyadmin-devel] Re: [Phpmyadmin-devel] bug : bouton et liens dans l'affichage des r ésultats d'une requete

Hi Olivier!

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.
