updating problem with phpMyAdmin

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?
