I am finishing up a chat room that uses a mySQL database. I figured I could stored the messages as TEXT datatypes. However, the TEXT datatype length is 65535 bytes, so I cannt append anymore data after that limit is reached.
Does anyone know if it is possible to change the limit OR possibly a beter way to store the message data?

The following is out of the mysql manual:
BLOB TEXT A BLOB or TEXT column with a maximum length of 65535 (2^16 - 1) characters. See section 7.7.1 Silent column specification changes. MEDIUMBLOB MEDIUMTEXT A BLOB or TEXT column with a maximum length of 16777215 (2^24 - 1) characters. See section 7.7.1 Silent column specification changes. LONGBLOB LONGTEXT A BLOB or TEXT column with a maximum length of 4294967295 (2^32 - 1) characters. See section 7.7.1 Silent column specification changes. ------------------ webpatron.com
