[Building Sakai] FCK Editor limit in samigo

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi,

It's not FCKeditor, its the length restriction of that column in the  
DB for Oracle, and hence in the JSF to restrict it for all. See below,  
and this Jira ticket:
http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-16822

So looks like you'll need to adjust the validateLength in the JSF.


cheers,
Steve
