phpMyAdmin can help to access MySQL

I use phpMyAdmin when I need to access MySQL database directly.
The phpMyAdmin application requires not only the MySQL server, but also PHP and a Web server to be installed. This application is commonly found in a virtual hsoting envirnment through an Internet Service Provider, as it allows the user complete access to only their own database.

1and1 and Dreamhost both have phpMyAdmin.

The main features of phpMyAdmin:
