Suggestion: Re-arrange the project file(s)

[Former user]

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 10 ``` An idea - separate the code itself from any styling and settings.

1) Offer to users to place the project into a single folder, i.e. "phpLiteAdmin"

2) Move all the settings into a separate file, i.e. "config.php". Require the settings by: require("./config.php");

3) Add a "Theme setting" into the configuration:

Theme (Skin) Style $theme = "default"; Available: "default" or "retro"

4) Create a separate CSS file, i.e. "default.css",

5) Move the built-in style rules into the "default.css" file.

6) Create an additional style file: "retro.css" and fill it with the "retro" theme rules.

7) Connect the "Theme" setting to the HTML code:

<!-- begin the customizable stylesheet/theme --> <link href="<?=$theme?>.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

8) Create a "index" redirector file in the "phpLiteAdmin" folder:

index.php: <?php require("./phpliteadmin.php");

```

``` 2) Yeah, this will become available in v2.0 of phpLiteAdmin, as outlined in the roadmap. 3) We also plan on having the theme system more modular to allow different layouts/colors/etc 8) We could do that... ```

``` These are good suggestions for the project if it were to become like phpMyAdmin - many files, lengthy installation, slightly bloated.

But I think phpLiteAdmin should stay as a single file, portable, quick solution for people who want to quickly manage their SQLite databases. SQLite is a flat-file, lightweight database system, as should be the tool to manage it.

I want people to be able to download the file, make some quick variable assignments, upload it to their server, and start using it right away. It's the way I would want my software to work.

I implemented a theme system where the user optionally uploads phpliteadmin.css alongside phpliteadmin.php, but that's as far as I want to go in terms of more than one source file. ```
