Another setting, $cfg['ShowPhpInfo'] , can be set to TRUE if we want to see the
Show PHP Information link on the Home page.
Database View
phpMyAdmin goes into this view (shown in the screenshot that follows) every time
we click on a database name from the left frame, or if the USE command followed by
a database name is typed in a SQL box.
This is where we can see an overview of the database: the existing tables, a link to
create a table, the tabs to the Database view sub-pages, and some special operations
we might do on this database to generate documentation and statistics. There is
a checkbox beside each table to make global operations on that table (covered in
Chapter 10). The table is chosen by using the checkbox or by clicking anywhere on
the row's background. We can also see each table's size, if $cfg['ShowStats'] is
set to TRUE . This parameter also controls the display of table-specific statistics in the
Table view.
