I could be missing something simple here but...
I have set up DBman with no prob, but one textarea field needs to allow a large chunk of text. I set cfg file to 50000 (since there is no maximum) and the textarea attribs to 40x3, but when I copy and paste a particularly huge piece of txt the field doesnt take the full text even though the cfg is set way beyond the size of the txt I am adding. I altered the size of the textarea field slightly and no problem...it takes the full txt, but I dont want the one field to take up half my screen. Surely the textarea size is the DISPLAY size only (40x3) and the field itself should allow txt as per the (50000) cgf setting.
Phew! thats it ... any help very appreciated!!

I have seen problems with browsers and textarea's with more then 30kb worth of text. How big is this?

Turn on $db_debug and look at the form output. Is it all there or is it getting chopped off somewhere?

Cheers,

Alex

Hi Alex,

I used debug and the text is indeed chopped off.... the text was over 30k..
Is there any way around this problem??

Thanx
