59 <p>Since, phpMyAdmin
’s interface is based entirely in your browser, you
’ll need a
60 web server (such as Apache,
<a class=
"reference internal" href=
"glossary.html#term-iis"><em class=
"xref std std-term">IIS
</em></a>) to install phpMyAdmin
’s files into.

63 <h2>PHP
<a class=
"headerlink" href=
"#php" title=
"Permalink to this headline">¶
</a></h2>
65 <li>You need PHP
5.2.0 or newer, with
<tt class=
"docutils literal"><span class=
"pre">session
</span></tt> support, the Standard PHP Library
66 (SPL) extension and JSON support.
</li>
67 <li>To support uploading of ZIP files, you need the PHP
<tt class=
"docutils literal"><span class=
"pre">zip
</span></tt> extension.
</li>
68 <li>For proper support of multibyte strings (eg. UTF-
8, which is currently
69 the default), you should install the
<tt class=
"docutils literal"><span class=
"pre">mbstring
</span></tt> and
<tt class=
"docutils literal"><span class=
"pre">ctype
</span></tt> extensions.
</li>
70 <li>You need GD2 support in PHP to display inline thumbnails of JPEGs
71 (
“image/jpeg: inline
”) with their original aspect ratio.
</li>
72 <li>When using the cookie authentication (the default), the
<a class=
"reference external" href=
"http://www.php.net/mcrypt">mcrypt
</a> extension is strongly suggested for most
73 users and is
<strong>required
</strong> for
64–bit machines. Not using mcrypt will
74 cause phpMyAdmin to load pages significantly slower.
</li>
75 <li>To support upload progress bars, see
<a class=
"reference internal" href=
"faq.html#faq2-9"><em>2.9 Seeing an upload progress bar
</em></a>.
</li>
76 <li>To support XML and Open Document Spreadsheet importing, you need PHP
77 5.2.17 or newer and the
