Description:
------------
i can't get php to process a <textarea> variable.
see code below. it seems that php can't process it beyond ~1500 characters.  the code below is very simple.  after clicking "submit" the <textarea> will echo back to the screen.... 

Reproduce code:
---------------
<? 
if(isset($submit)){
	echo $box;
}
?>

<html>
<head>
<title>textarea</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body>
<form action="<? echo $PHP_SELF; ?>" method="get">
<textarea name="box" cols="75" rows="15">

Works fine here (Linux, Apache, Galeon). Most probably this is a limitation in your browser or your webserver.

Try switching to the POST method. This will allow you to send more data from the browser to the web server.

If it was a bug, would you think the message you sent had got here? Guess if the box you put that message is a <textbox>..
