Hi Peter, I'd thought I'd just mention that the varchar length depends on your MySQL version and character set. 5.0.3 and later handles upto 64k chars. See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/char.html

Hi, URL's have a practical limit of 2083 characters it seems. To store these in a space efficient way (I have 1,000,000s of url rows), what's the best approach? varchar has a 255 maximum, right? Should I just use TEXT? I'm not searching *in* the urls, I am selecting like this: "where url = 'xxx'". Thanks, Peter
