Send huge strings to mysql db from html textarea

[softDeveloper]

Hi All,

I'm copying a long text from word and pasting into a html textarea and from here I send it to MySQL database. If the submited text is too long nothing happens.

Any ideas on how to submit a large amount of text from a webpage to a MySQL database?

Thanks in advance.

define 'nothing happens'. your action isn't performed, your db is not updated with the text, ...

do you get an error message in your logs? to submit a large amount of text' insert text into table' ...

maybe your text is just too long for your column to contain.
