    <p>When a user tries to enter a review in "textarea" in the form, only 50 characters of review is displayed. I have tried resolving the situation by disabling Jquery form validation changing the field type to tinytext, mediumtext. I am able to enter the full review 200 characters via PHPMyAdmin so I am guessing the problem is with my PHP but I am not able to see anything obvious . If any one could help it would be greatly appreciated.</p> <pre><code> &lt;label for="review"&gt;Your Review&lt;/label&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;textarea name="review" id="review" rows="15" cols="60"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt; // Check for a review if (empty($_POST['review'])){ $errors[] = "Please write a review"; } else { $review = (trim($_POST['review'])); } if (empty($errors)) { // If no errors were found. require_once('./includes/mysql_connect.php'); // Make the insert query. $query = "INSERT INTO films (movie_title, actor, rating, user_id) Values ('$mt', '$la', '$rating', '$user')"; $result = mysql_query($query); $id = mysql_insert_id(); $query = "INSERT INTO reviewed (review, movie_id) values ('$review', '$id')"; $result = mysql_query($query); &lt;div id="Review_container"&gt; &lt;?php require_once('./includes/mysql_connect.php'); $review = $_GET['id']; echo $review; ?&gt; &lt;/div&gt; Table structure for table `reviewed` CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `reviewed` ( `review_id` int(4) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `review` mediumtext NOT NULL, `movie_id` int(4) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`review_id`), KEY `movie_id` (`movie_id`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=4 ; //No value for review if ($('#review').val() == "") { $('.error').append("&lt;li&gt;Please enter a review&lt;/li&gt;"); error = true; } if (error) { // If error found dont submit. e.preventDefault(); } }); // End of .submit function: review_a_film.php </code></pre>

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.
