(...) Yes, I think Netscape imposes something like a 32K or 128K limit on the <TEXTAREA> tag. It's also set to a max of 65000 characters in the HTML code, so even if Netscape didn't impose a limit, the web page would. Strictly speaking, News-by-Mail (...) (26 years ago, 5-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
