Interface Overview - Mastering phpMyAdmin 2.11 for Effective MySQL Management - page 55

A user might be surprised when seeing the term KiB in the Size and Overhead
columns. phpMyAdmin has adopted the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) binary prefixes (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix ). The
displayed values are defined in each language file; here is the definition for English:
$byteUnits = array('B', 'KiB', 'MiB', 'GiB', 'TiB', 'PiB', 'EiB');
Table View
This is a commonly used view, giving access to all table-specific sub-pages. Usually,
the initial screen is the table's Structure screen, which shows (note the upper part)
all fields and indexes. Note that the header for this screen always shows the current
database and table names. We also see the comments set for the table:
The $cfg['DefaultTabTable'] parameter defines the initial sub-page on the Table
view. Some users prefer to avoid seeing the structure, because in production they
routinely run saved queries or enter the Search sub-page (explained in Chapter 9).
