209786 - phpMyAdmin is more broken in Camino 20030617 than in MSIE or Safari

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Camino Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030617 Camino/0.7+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030617 Camino/0.7+

Camino fails completely to build a database view (can't get to square one) using
phpMyAdmin.  Although phpMyAdmin is far from bugfree itself, it works tolerably
well in Safari v74 and MS Internet Explorer 5.2.3, but not at all in Camino.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Install phpMyAdmin 2.5.1 and Mark Liyanage's PHP library module for Apache
2.  Install MySql 4.0.13 from www.mysql.com, then "mysql -p" at Terminal to
begin the session
3.  Source an sql file to create tables (a small one, ca. 40 Mb expanded, is
provided here: 
     http://homepage.mac.com/dcoshel/usda_nutr_db_sr15.sql.gz
    )
4.  http://yourmachinesrendevous.local/index.php
4a. IF THAT FAILS (probably will ;-), use http://127.0.0.1/index.php
5.  Select the nutr_db database using the popup menu top left
6.  When that fails, click on Databases in the area about midscreen
Actual Results:  
Zip, zilch, nada.  No change.  No effect whatever, unlike Safari and MSIE.  Note
that standard elements of the phpMyAdmin screen are missing (including the small
logo top left).

Expected Results:  
It should have displayed a list of the tables contained in mysql; i.e., the
mysql  database itself, and nutr_db, the USDA Nutrient Database for Standard
Release 15.  This is square one -- couldn't even select a database using Camino.

Mac OS X 10.2.6, X11.app Preview 3, dual usb little white iBook.  IMHO, since
all the Mac browsers I checked seem to exhibit various minor degrees of these
behaviors, which are nevertheless severe enough in Camino to prevent work
getting done, there is probably a set of third party interactions involved.  It
is a major showstopper, though, on Camino.

Dave,
could you check two things ?
1) is the problem present when you use Mozilla ?
2) Could you check with a newer Camino nigthly ?

Thanks.

Resolving WFM per comment 2. Dave, if you'd like to follow up on the questions
in comment 1 and can still reproduce the problem, feel free to reopen.
