    <p>thanks for taking the time to read this post.</p> <p>I have been looking online for the past little while and cannot find what I want I keep finding how to set a max length, I need to know if there IS a max length allowed to be set through using the <code>Jquery.text();</code> funciton?</p> <p>I am trying to set the text through using this function but it is limiting me somewhere around 500 characters?</p> <p>I need to display text well over 3000 characters (a full length blog post). </p> <p>I have tried using the <code>.innerHMTL = data;</code> but it does the same thing.</p> <p>How can I remove this limit if there is? Or what is going on?</p> <p>Thanks so much!</p> <p><strong>UPDATE</strong></p> <p>I have figured out that there is no limit to the amount of characters, however when I have a line break or something in the article/blog post recorded in the database, it won't show. ie: i can have this:</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
