Re: Perl truncating HTML form input

1. Works for me on firefox 2 / debian linux. Which browser are you using?

2. Check again that the form you are using really has a POST method (view page source).

1. That is really odd that it worked for you without the enctype. Now I'm confused again. I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.13 on Mac 10.4.11. 2. The code that I used in this thread was a copy-paste from emacs, so I'm sure it's using POST. Unrelated to Joost's reply, the Chatterbox said someone was wondering what makes this form multipart. I was wondering that myself and found this: `The content type "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" is inefficient fo +r sending large quantities of binary data or text containing non-ASCI +I characters` [download] here. I'll be honest -- I'm not sure if my text falls into this category, but it does fit the "large quantities" part (relatively speaking).	[reply] [d/l]
