Processing large strings...

Post by Todd_Z »

If I have a textarea which could have a few kilobytes of information, whats the best way to process it? Just have it stored in the $_POST variable, or is there a better way to do it?

not sure if there's another way, but a few KB wont' be an issue, I've pasted a MySQL dump into phpMyAdmin of about 5 MB and didn't have any issues.

it hurt my machine and I had to buy it some extra doughnuts, but didn't have any effect on the post data...
