  • What do you mean by "connected to each other?" It's the queries you write that determine what tables connect to which. Commented Oct 8, 2012 at 11:17

    @ATaylor That's not really true. When the tables are linked with primary and foreign keys, then it's possible to find out what table has a relation with another table etc. Thus you could make a database diagram from that. No idea if phpMyAdmin supports that though. Commented Oct 8, 2012 at 11:44

You can't do this in phpmyadmin... You need to use some external tool.

Try:

MySQL Workbench:
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/

  • When you choose your OS and download type mysql site will take you to one page where it asks you to login/register this is not required, there is link beneath that it says "» No thanks, just start my download!"

Export your database (structure only export) and use "Reverse Engineer Database" mode.
