create a database with phpMyAdmin ?

hi, have phpMyAdmin now up and running, and have to say a BIG thanks to all. Have discovered, that a user phpadmin is not possible. Maybe, that is a used keyword ? Anyway, after changing the user from phpadmin to a common name like girlie as an authoritative user phpMyAdmin started successful. But have 2 questions now : 1.) how can I create a database with phpMyAdmin ? The only thing I can see is on the left side the databases created manual and the "standard-databases" looks like that : Home +mydb +mysql +hans +test and on the right side I have this : Welcome to phpMyAdmin 2.0.5 MySQL 3.22.27 running on localhost Log out phpMyAdmin-Homepage phpMyAdmin Documentation that's all. Now - how is it possible to create databases or where I have to tweak phpMyAdmin for doing so ? 2:) after trying to "Log out" I get a "Authorization failed". Have declared an authorized user and an authorized passwd in config.inc.php3 That is unlogical for me, because if I have a real Authorization failer, then it should not be possible to login. Or am I wrong here ? The release I have installed : phpMyAdmin_2.0.5.tar.gz. Was the latest, I have seen. Any suggestions for that ? Thanks in advance Hans Schneidhofer
