Stefano, The behaviour you are describing is normal, assuming that the column in your MySQL table is defined as CHAR(255) or VARCHAR(255). You didn't say which version of MySQL you are using. However, unless you are using MySQL 5.0.3 or later, 255 is the largest size available for a CHAR or

Sounds like you need a 1:N relationship table to hold userInfo separate from either the user or group table. Adding a infoIdentifier would allow the number of rows added for a specific user to be sized based on the specific user needs. This is effect would be the key part of a key-value pair,
