[Phpmyadmin-devel] foreign key on external database

[Isart Montane]

Hi guys,

If I add a new dropdown with the databases, the table dropdown should be
updated when the database dropdown changes. Any suggestion on how to do it?


   1. Add the table dropdown on an iframe and reload it when the database
   dropdown changes (javascrpt)
   2. Ajax
   3. Others?

Thx!
Isart
