how to exit phpmyadmin properly ?

Hello,

w'd just like to ask how to how properly exit/close phpmyadmin ?
Is it just done with stopping Apache, MySQL & ending xampp ?
or is there a way to log out ?

Cause i don't see a logout or close button within phymyadmin anywhere.


thanks alot

Hi,

You don't need to close/exit phpMyAdmin. phpMyAdmin is a PHP based Webserver script, so the browser sends a request (with every click on a link for example) and gets a response from the webserver daemon. The time the browser gets the request is de facto the end of the script.
The only thing that persists through this border are session information which can also contain data. So if you want to kill the session too you can clear your browser cache. In some cases the session will also be exited if you simply exit the browser (depends on the specific webscript)

best wishes,

Alright, thanks alot !

So all there is to do is close the browser tab or the entire browser ?

The entire session

Ok

But session means what ? All browser-tabs with pma ?
Or while Apache & MySQL running ?

Thanks

Sorry, i meant the entire browser.
I don't know any browser setting which ends a session if you close a tab.

Oh okay ,

by shutting the whole browser then.

Cool, thank you veeeery much
