I just recently installed phpmyadmin on my system. I would like to know how to limit users from viewing other peoples database. When I log in as user A in phpmyadmin, I can view other databases not created by user A. Anyways, I can limit this.

You can not do any limiting with phpMyAdmin itself.
It relies on the MySQL permissions system.
