updating problem with phpMyAdmin

2 New Member
I'm a new user with phpMyAdmin. I have created a database and a table. However now I want to change some of the data types of some of the variables (fields) in the table.
From the Structure display, I go into the Change display and make the change for the variable. Upon return, there is some new
strings (links) in blue letters: '[Edit] [Create PHP Code]' . When clicking on the '[Create PHP Code]', a new string '[Submit Query]' appears. Clicking on the '[Submit Query]' blanks the screen and then the 'Structure' display returns. However no change is evident in the table structure. What am I doing wrong ?
phpMyAdmin version: 2.9.0.2
Server version: 4.1.22-standard
Storage Engine: MYISAM

Umm.. I don't much use phpMyAdmin unless I don't have a choice, and even then I do all of my queries by hand. What is displayed on this "create PHP code" page?

Okay, I've never used phpMyAdmin before but I'm trying to learn. I've downloaded the .zip file and unzipped it on my Windows box. It looks like all I have to do now is ftp all the files to the appropriate directory on my RedHat box, and then just configure a few settings like hostname, username and password. I guess I'm not quite clear on the concept of which directory I'm supposed to ftp the files to. Since it has to run in a web...

Dear all, Hello to all the great minds of php. My humble question is regarding the phpmyadmin. As you know the welcome screen of phpmyadmin allows one to choose the language. My question is this: if the data was entered into a database of mySQL in UNICODE, like "محمدان" and so fort, then how can we display this in a readable format when for example trying to Insert a new record from the phpmyadmin Insert option for the particular table?...

I've just installed phpMyAdmin. If I have the line $cfg = 'http://localhost/php/phpmyadmin'; in my config.inc.php I can login to phpMyAdmin without any problems from my local machine.

This is a really, really elementary (almost dumb) question. I have a php script I picked up elsewhere that I want to use to query my MySQL DB. I have phpMyAdmin. I'd like to somehow run this script via phpMyAdmin so I can bookmark this for future reference. How do I do it? The phpMyadmin interface doesn't like the variable declarations like $query1="SELECT blah, blah"; when I do it manually.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
