Hi,
I'm having a problem with a view table that has the following line in the SQL:
GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT CAST(if(`users_groups`.`status` = 'logged in', CONCAT('<img src="/VID/images/status1.gif"><span title="', Gebruikers.naam, '">', extensions.extension, '</span>'), CONCAT('<img src="/VID/images/status2.gif"><span title="', Gebruikers.naam, '">', extensions.extension, '</span>')) AS CHAR) SEPARATOR ', ') as extensions
I'm adding HTML in the query (I don't want to do this with PHP) and because of the GROUP_CONCAT, the returnvalue can larger than a VARCHAR can handle, this will cause the last characters to fall off. Because of this I'd like the 'extensions' field to be of type TEXT, but I have no clue on how to do this. Is it even possible?
Cheers,
Gijs
