Hi Marcus, cause it's an essential information: The metadata information for prepared statements and normal statements differ, while one uses max_length the other uses length. Also MySQL < 4.1.8 returned the length in bytes (which was wrong), MySQL >= 4.1.8 returns the length in characters. For example: VARCHAR(50) CHARACTER SET UTF8 returned 150 before 4.1.8, in 4.1.8 it returns 50. With information charsetnr + length you will be able to handle this. /Georg -- Georg Richter, Senior Software Developer MySQL AB, www.mysql.com Are you MySQL certified? www.mysql.com/certification -- PHP CVS Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
