adam84 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Does anyone know if there is a maximum amount of data that can be sent through a form at one time. CauseI have a textarea where the user can input whatever they want and if they enter in a very large amount of data the page gets an error. If the user just enters in something that isnt to big, the page works correctly. I dont understand whats going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilman Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 The server administrator may have a maximum file size for uploading files, though I have never encountered that with just text. Ask your web host provider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soycharliente Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 You should always put some kind of boundary on how much data they can enter, even if it just text. You can check with Javascript before the page is sent, or PHP after it's sent but before it's processed, or a ton of other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
