Hello,

IMHO the way the multi line editor decides which kind of html form element
to use for specific fields is problematic. A field of type "text" is
represented by the means of a textarea while "varchar(4000)" gets a one
line input field (though the maximal size of 4000 chars is an indicator
that multi line text might be expected as value).

Is there any reason I don't take into consideration at the moment not to
change "libexec/webmin/mysql/view_table.cgi" starting at line 300 into
something like 

elsif ($str[$j]->{'type'} =~ /\((\d+)\)/) {
    # Show as known-size text
    if ($1 < 256) {
        local $nw = $1 > 70 ? 70 : $1;
        $et .= &ui_textbox($nm, $d[$j], $nw);
    } else {
        $et .= &ui_textarea($nm, $d[$j], 3, 70);
    }
}

?
