Question

I have encountered a problem while inserting a large amounts of text into my MySql database.

Can I please get any pointers (what column types to use & any other issues I need to know) as to how I can achieve this, the code works fine with small amounts.

Thanks in advance.

Clarification
The text blocks have around 7,000 characters.

And the problem I’m encountering is the PHP app is prompting me that the data has been saved but when i look at the dbase, the record hasnt been stored.

I have changed the particular column to LONG TEXT but that doesnt seem to do the trick.

Thanks

In short use LONGBLOB or LONGTEXT, but you better descrive the problem more precisely.
