title: Very long text in Oracle
body: <p>I would like to know which is the best practice for saving very long text in an ORACLE database field?</p>
  
  <p>I save with Coldfusion from a form the text content of a mail in an Oracle database. I use currently the type LONG in my database field. I encounter problems for saving very long text (with many special characters like /, ", %, $, &amp; and others) I receive an error 502 (Bad gateway). If the very long text contains some special characters it's not a problem.</p>
  
  <p>Could you help me with that? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for your help.</p>
  
  <p>Regards,</p>
