Hello!

I think I found a semi-serious bug in the 2.0 Beta. I have written a
basic contact manager using the w3-msql interface. My database looks
like the following (from msqldump):

#
# Table structure for table 'support_info'
#
CREATE TABLE support_info (
  company_name CHAR(45) NOT NULL,
  company_id INT,
  tech_contact1 CHAR(45) NOT NULL,
  tech_contact2 CHAR(45),
  tc1_phone CHAR(45) NOT NULL,
  tc2_phone CHAR(45),
  service_contract CHAR(3),
  sc_date_executed CHAR(15),
  sc_term CHAR(15),
  hw_disc TEXT(254),
  sw_disc TEXT(254),
  notes TEXT(254),
  tc1_mail CHAR(45),
  tc2_mail CHAR(45)
) \g


Everything works fine, but if a use the 'add entry' page I've written
and put 'NULL' in for everything AND then go the the 'delete entry' page
and try to delete the row, the msql2d server dies with the following
message:

<SNIP!>
Hit by a sig 11



Forced server shutdown due to bad signal!

Forcing close on Socket 8
Forcing close on Socket 11


[1]+  IOT trap/Abort          /usr/local/Hughes/bin/msql2d

<SNIP!>

Also, can anyone tell me if there are any limitations on the size of the
text() fields? From the docs, it looks like they can be as large as you
want them, correct?

Thanks,

jf
