I have been asked to make a quick feedback form for someone with the results being entered into a mysql database at the end. A couple of sections will be in the form of written text.

Does anyone know of a way to get around the 255 character limit of a database entry?
The only way I have been able to think of is to split each text block into 250 character chunks and insert them separately.

Anyone have any ideas?

EDIT! Ignore me. I suddenly figured what I wanted. Feel free to remove this topic. :shy:

Jut to explain. I thought that when creating a table, you had to specify the number of characters using varchar(xx). I actually then rea the mySQL manual which shows you how to use 'text' for longer bits of text. I really feel thick now...
