Chapter 14. Using Query Bookmarks

This chapter covers query bookmarks—one of the features of the phpMyAdmin configuration storage. Being able to label queries, and recall them by label, can be a real time saver. Bookmarks are queries that have the following properties:

• Stored permanently

• Viewable

• Erasable

• Related to one database

• Recorded only as a consequence of a user's action

• Labeled

• Private by default (only available to the user creating them) but possibly public

A bookmark can also have a variable part, as explained in the Passing a parameter to a bookmark section later in this chapter.

There is no bookmark page for managing bookmarks. Instead, the various actions for bookmarks are available on specific pages, such as results pages or query box pages.
