In the text area, the size is defined as 1000 and even in the database. but on changing the contents beyond 1000 and validating, on updating the contents to the database, the update fails in netscape where as it works in IE

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, techtalk. What version of Netscape are you working with? Old versions had some relatively low size limits on many elements, but if this is a new version of the Browser, then I'm very surprised.
How exactly does it fail?

hi, Actually the problem arises when a new line character is introduced. then even if the character count is 1000, it cannot update to my database as the new line character adds extra characters. the only way out right now seems like increasing the size of the text area in the database. but this is not an efficient choice as it will not be known before hand how many new line characters will be introduced. i am using netscape 6.2
