PHP With Sybase 12.5 Extended varchar fields

[sinister]

Hi There

Recently started writing an application with PHP that gets data out of a Sybase 12.5 database (Been using 11.9.2 'til now). The table it's getting the data out of has a varchar field greater then 255 chars. Problem is that the PHP only gets 255 chars when I retrieve the field from the database.

Anybody know what is causing this. Do I need to install a newer PHP or update the PHP Sybase libraries?

Any help appreciated.

Probably a PHP bug. This also happens with MS SQL, try searching for that and seeing if someone was able to find a workaround.
