Hi, How can I find the longest string in a column?
I can probably write a PHP-script that checks the str_length recursively, but I would like to be able to do this within MySQL... I would like to have the value and the length of the string if this is possible. Is this possible or should I try to write the PHP-script? I couldn't find anything relevant in the documentation or the archives, but I hope I just missed it...
