(MySQL) creating table , VARCHAR (<<unlimited>>)
I'm creating a guestbook, and the messages will be saved in a database. But as I don't know how long the visitors message will be so I can't set a limit for VARCHAR. I'd like to have it as unlimited, how do I set it?
mysql_query ("create table news(date VARCHAR(20), sender VARCHAR(100), topic VARCHAR(50), msg VARCHAR(unlimited)") or die("err... wont work");

FYI - This belongs in the mysql forum...
The 'unlimited VARCHAR' type in MySQL is a TEXT column, and there are also different kinds of those available. For more info, see the manual. //NoXcuz
