First of all, I apologize if this is 'off topic'. I couldn't find a MySQL
newsgroup on my news server.
I was just curious, what exactly the limitation of VARCHAR's. Recently I was
messing with mysql, and I had a series of 6 hexadecimal colors seperated by
% signs stored in a varchar large enough to store the whole thing, but it
was truncating the string to like 34 characters instead of the full 48. I
fixed it by making that column a BLOB type, but was still wondering why it
was acting that way. Thanks in advance!
