Input field size

[attroll]

I created a database which I want users to create a discription on a hiking trail. I set the field to 1000 but no matter what I do it will not let me put more then 255 characters with spaces in the field. Is the limit set to 255 or am I missing something here?

P.S. I have both of these set to the following setting:
Width (chars): 1000
Maxlength: 1000

You have to set an appropriate field type in your db either for the field description. It should be at least mediumtext. Probably it is right now a varchar which allows a maximum of 255 characters. I think it has nothing to do with dadabik.

Thank you marcello that did the trick.
