phpMyAdmin

phpMyAdmin is a tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL through a web browser. Currently it can do the following tasks:

  • Create and drop databases
  • Create, drop, and alter tables
  • Delete, edit, and add fields
  • Execute any SQL statement
  • Manage keys on fields

phpMyAdmin is installed by default with every shared hosting plan. You cannot use phpMyAdmin to create and drop databases though, you must do this through cPanel control panel.
