Hello,
I have a html page with 70+ form fields some like 40 fields are only used
for entering quantity numbers
Is it a good idea to put this 50 fields of the form fields into a single
text mysql field?
Somehow process it with php before, put inside of some kind of xml
structure?
Just dont want to do Mysql table with 70 fields
One of the advantages of relational databases is that you do not have to
know the structure of the data.
Why break that? Why subject yourself, and the developer who follows you and
has to maintain your code, to parsing hell?
Why do you not want to do a MySQL table with 70 fields? MySQL is designed
for this sort of thing.
Given the tone of these comments, your database design may be questionable.
Is a lot of data in a given table redundant; and if so the design likely
needs work.
