Features
Although PhpMyAdmin (http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/index.php) is intended as a database administration tool it has uses far beyond this narrow scope:
- DB admin
- Schema design and review
- Browsing DB content
With a small amount of work it can be customised into a webUI for many DB applications.
