Max Text3 Field Len in Page Upload

[Jed]

Does anyone know the max length of the page body fields Text1, Text2 and
Text3 for the page upload on ShopSite Manager?

I have problems with a long (over 85k) Text3 footer that I am trying to
insert. When I cut it down, it works, but then I can't fit all the info in
there.

Thanks!

The practical limit is around 64K. The buffer for these fields is
around 100k but any html coding in the text must be encrypted when it is
stored so the actual size of the information may expand considerably.
Examples a < becomes @lt; and an > becomes @gt; a quote mark " becomes
@quot; So you can see that there can be a 4 or 5 to 1 expansion of
characters when the characters are URL encrypted. So the more html you
include in the text the shorter the actual text length can be.

I believe this limitation is removed in ShopSite version 8.1. However,
be aware that if you are using another application such as Excel to
format the data for upload it will have a limit as to how much text can
be in a field.
