i know this sounds boring, but i DO want to write my articles into the php-admin-tool i wrote.
echo "<form action='$PHP_SELF' method=submit>";
echo "<tr><td><textarea name=text cols=40 rows=12 maxlength=65535></textarea></td></tr>";
OK. these are a few lines from the form, here comes the point of no return:
$trans=get_html_translation_table (HTML_ENTITIES);
$text = nl2br(strtr($text, $trans));
$sql="INSERT INTO test (titel,subtitel,header,text,bild,link,linktext) VALUES ('$titel','$subtitel','$header','$text','$bild','$link','$linktext')";
$res=send_sql($db,$sql);
in effect this clips the $text string after ca. 1270 characters. the "text" field is a BLOB btw.
pleeze!!
