Hi all,

I have a table with a field full of urls.. what I need to do is to append
to those urls with a new url, so for example, if the field had
http://www.yahoo.com i want to make it
http://www.myserver.com/login?url=http://www.yahoo.com ..

I have tried the following which I thought should work:-
update table set field = concat("http://www.myserver.com/login?url=";,
field) where restriction="D" and location="local";

It goes all fine, however when I do a search I have records that now show
the url as http://www.myserver.com/login?url=http: and it chops off the
rest.. I have checked the size of the field itself and it was a
varchar(255).. I thought maybe it was the restriction, which it was for
about 51 of them cause they showed up as warnings when I ran the update
command, so I changed the varchar to a blob to see the difference and no
longer are there any warnings, but it still chops off everything after
http:

Any ideas?
