Thread: [GENERAL] :Pb with the size of the table

Is it possible to put more than 255 caracters in one column?
I tried with the "text" variable, and the text after the 255 one is cut!
Who could help me?

If the column is defined as text, the limit is closer to 8K (depending on
the other fields in the row, of course). I suspect this has something to do
with the language/interface you are using in the frontend.
