question about mysql_real_escape_string()

[Tom Roos]

hi

does this function handle a binary string of any length or is there some sort of max limit.

when i load a binary file (filesize 49Kb) into a blob field, the function is ok but when the filesize is 1.8Mb, the function fails and my programs aborts. using the debugger, the program aborts when in this function.

if mysql_real_escape_string() has a max limit, how does one get around this? could it be set in my.cnf, or somewhere else? or is this a case of bad practise to load big (> 1Mb) into mysql?

tks
tom
