title: Long text error with mysql
body: <p>I'm having a bit of trouble with a submit form on my website. You enter your name, email, and content. The name and email submit just fine and content works whenever there are no special characters. </p>
  
  <p>How do I allow for characters and spaces and such with that type of content on the database end? I have it at not null and long text.</p>
  
  <p>Here is the css for the content area:</p>
  
  <pre><code>form textarea {
  width: 45%;
  height: 10em;
  overflow-y: scroll;
  resize: vertical;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is the html for the content area:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div&gt;Content:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;label&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;textarea cols="40" rows="5" name="s_content"&gt;`&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;/div&gt;`
  </code></pre>
