Some BLOBs (whose size I have not determined) are too
large to be edited. It does not seem to be based on
the datatype, but rather the amount of space used.
Well, it would help to know the size that was in problem. From the MySQL doc:
The maximum size of a BLOB or TEXT object is determined by its type, but the largest value you can
actually transmit between the client and server is determined by the amount of available memory and the
size of the communications buffers. You can change the message buffer size, but you must do so on
both the server and client ends. See section 13.2.3 Tuning Server Parameters.
Or... would the problem be related to the way a particular browser handles the TEXTAREA? In the HTML
4.01 standard they don't mention a limit for a TEXTAREA size, however, browsers must have limits...
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Current popular browsers have a limit of about 32K for
editable textarea. I will add a message stating that
the field may not be editable in those cases.
