    Default URgent! how to change length of product description!

    Hello,
    I have oscommerce ms2-max my site is www.imaginecomputers.biz and the product description is not long enough for my needs.. some products need a really long description, but it gets cropped back down to the size of the page or something, How do i make it longer / unlimited size, ie it sizes larger then the page depending on how much u have in the description...
    Please help as i cannot put the products up with the correct description until i fix this. I tried looking in admin, but there is no max value for product description.....

    Thankz

    It seems to be that it is not related to the size of any maximums or anything, if i go to description, and just type like 1 enter 2 enter 3 enter.. it goes unlimited page size.... but if i copy and paste stuff into wyswyg editor, cause it takes a long time to process it all dosent get in.. im wondering if mysql has a timeout or something? is there an external version of wyswyg editor that i can use to convert the copied text into the php format and then paste that into an easypopulate database thus avoiding the conversion timeout? if thats what it is cause it seems like that.... ?

    You have single quotes in your code somewhere. PHP requires that you escape any single quotes, as it uses them when parsing code. So you have to put a backslash in front of any single quotes.

    This isn't related to your origional post, but I was look at your site. Where you have the prebuilt kits - you should make those add-ons as attributes. Then people can choose what they want on the fly and see what there adjusted price is.
