The looks pretty simple, there seems to be no problem at all. TEXT type allows 65535 characters, so that shouldn't be a problem. Try to debug the SQL query by printing it out, and check for any syntactical errors.
you right! but i am still face problem......actually there is no error outcome. some time if i add heading, and let say i add only one line it do take and save it in database...
e.g in description i am try to add Player of the Year Award Ricky Ponting (Australia) Test Player of the Year Award Ricky Ponting (Australia) ODI Player of the Year Michael Hussey (Australia) but when i add the same...but add more in it it do not insert Player of the Year Award Ricky Ponting (Australia) Test Player of the Year Award Ricky Ponting (Australia) ODI Player of the Year Michael Hussey (Australia) Women's Player of the Year Karen Rolton (Australia) i noted that when i remove the (single quote) after the women's i do insert... what is this problem i dont think this might be an error..
oky fine but this problem didnt occur before two month ago...it used to word accurately any how thanks for your help...
Probably becauase either you did not had ' in the data you were inserting or had the delimiter backslash for it.
well i need to know that solution of this problem... correction in last post oky fine but this problem didnt occur before two month ago...it used to work accurately
