Re: [PHP-DB] Free php-based mysql browser/query tool available for download...
Sorry it's for mysql only...but this merely reflects the current state of php's database support...especially regarding functions for retrieving database metadata. Perhaps it's about time you had another look ;) Use ADOdb and you have access to a range of engines. Yes there are some holes, but they are being plugged as required. There is also PEARdb, but I have had less success with that. SNIP Personally I use phpMyAdmin or the mysql cmdline (like everybody else) for admin tasks, but I wanted a simple front-end for the rest of my website without all of phpMyAdmin's baggage (ui and otherwise). I have never run mysql, being a long time Interbase/Firebird user. ibWebAdmin is an alternative for that, but I know that a number of ADOdb based front end's are being built. Perhaps the dropping of mysql integration in PHP5 will help open the market up again :) -- Lester Caine - L.S.Caine Electronic Services -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP-DB] Free php-based mysql browser/query tool available for download...
Sorry it's for mysql only...but this merely reflects the current state of php's database support...especially regarding functions for retrieving database metadata. Current support is for pointclick browsing and simple queries. I will be adding support for joins, calculated columns, and more in the coming weeks. As this was my first php project (don't use this as a reason to not download...it works fine) I would appreciate greatly any feedback regarding shortcuts, innefficiencies, bugs, etc. For downloading instructions and a demo, please see: http://www.vxappliance.com/developers/shareware/databaseExplorers Personally I use phpMyAdmin or the mysql cmdline (like everybody else) for admin tasks, but I wanted a simple front-end for the rest of my website without all of phpMyAdmin's baggage (ui and otherwise). mike klein -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
