It is very simple thing. Edit the file "config.inc.php" and change the $cfgServers[1]['host'], $cfgServers[1]['user'] and $cfgServers[1]['password'] to reflect your personal login information. Then simply copy the files to a web directory (so that it's served by a webbrowser). Load the page and you're in Laughing out loud

If you know the MySQL root login and password, you could instead enter the root login/pass in $cfgServers[1]['stduser'] and $cfgServers[1]['stdpass'] and then setting $cfgServers[1]['adv_auth'] to TRUE. This way when you try to load phpMyAdmin it will ask for your login/pass (more secure this way).

Thanks a lot guys, I downloaded MYSQL Front and thats what I am looking for. Everybody was telling me that phpmyadmin is the best, but I dont see any application file, to start the program or anything when downloaded. I was changing config.inc.php file, but I dont get it, how does this work, over the web browser, so phpmyadmin is not actually a program its the web application???
