I have an SQL Server database running on a server on the internet. I need to have php connecting to the db and returning values. Simple stuff. No problem making the connection and getting data using the mssql functions. The weird thing is that 4 of the fields in the table are vchar fields of length 800. When getting the data from the db for the web page, all that gets returned are the first 255 characters of each field. If I use a SQL client to check the db, I see that all 800 characters are there. And if I use ASP pages I can get all 800 characters returned on the web page, but using php only gets the first 255. I used some php column length functions on the page and it shows those 4 fields as length 255.(??) Am I missing something? Does php have a limit on the number of characters returned from a field? I can use ASP to write the pages I guess, but I don't know why php wouldn't work.
