PHP - MySQL - rawurlencode problem

minority1

Hi.

I'm using a php script to grab information from a MySQL database and use rawurlencode to change it into a format which Flash can accept.

I've got this working - problem is that the script only seems to pull a certain amount of characters out of the database. Is there any way to increase this number?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Stu

hi Stu Miller,

are you sure about the certain amount of characters is caused by your script and not the flash?
did you echo the information in your browser without the flash thingie?
how do you send the information to the flash?

Hi,

Thanks for you response.

It was a problem porting the database from its old access format into the mysql format.

One of the fields is a long text field, with up to 2000 characters. In access it's in 'memo' format.

When I try to port this to mysql as 'longtext' or 'blob' it only takes 255 characters across.

Any ideas?
