Guest Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 Another newbie. I populated my sitea and realised that the products_name field of the products_description table was not large enough to fit all my data for some records. I increased the field length as required. I then pasted the longer data into the productd description field (it worked) and looked in the catalog. The data was still at the shortened version. For another item I pasted the longer data in using catalog/admin (it worked) and it showed up correctly in the catalog. However when I looked at that record in the MySQL database it was still showing at the shorter length. ie an update in MySQL doesn't show through to the catalog and an update in catalog/admin doesn't show through to MySQL Question: What is it I am not understanding? regards CJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phpmyadmin truncates what you can see entered in the particular column - you can do a select query and see it is all actually there. Matti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
