hi! i have a question concerning string column types of a mysql database:
char is better for small sized strings (because of the fixed row size, and for long strings it would blow the db up too much) but how about varchar vs text or blob.. which one is suited for which need the best? blob is case-sensitive.. but except for that text can store more than 255 chars is there any difference between varchar and text/blob? thanks alot in advance best, florian -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
