I’ve been working on something recently in which the testing has involved modiyfing 2 or 3 fields in a database very regularly, I was fed-up of going into phpMyAdmin clicking edit on the row, finding the field (1 of 100 odd), editing it and then going to the save button.

I decided that I would write a Greasemonkey script to turn all of the fields into an AJAX editing form.

Basically all you have to do now is double click the field value, edit the value and hit enter to save!

It has only been tested on phpMyAdmin 3.1.2 so I have no idea if it’ll work on other versions.

This script uses jQuery (www.jquery.com).
