http://drupal.org/node/46306#comment-71971 ]. Should form field maxlengths be consistent with corresponding database field sizes or should unicode encoding be accounted for?
Drupal has no way of knowing what the field size of the database is, and as such the forms api can't take that into account.
Huh? I know that a taxonomy term can be 255, because it is hardcoded in the database definition, so why is it hardcoded in FAPI as only 64? What's the use of the other 190 or so characters? -- Morbus Iff ( putting the sanity back in sanity ) Technical: http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/au/779 Culture: http://www.disobey.com/ and http://www.gamegrene.com/ icq: 2927491 / aim: akaMorbus / yahoo: morbus_iff / jabber.org: morbus
