Ok, thanks for this. I was under the impression that setting the rows and cols was only to show how much text would be visible on screen, but the textarea tag was unlimited. Thanks for clearing this up.

Hello Lamar:You set the size of the textarea by specifying cols and rows. If cols="60"and rows="8" then you could have 8 rows of 60 chars each.The maximum value of varchar is 255. It runs from 0 to 255, or 256 choices.Over that, you may use mediumtext or simply text.
