[thelist] Odd duplicating-on-insert error

[Palyne Gaenir]

Hi Evoltians,

Has anyone ever seen the simple text data entered in a field cause an 
error?  The data, not the form or processor?

I have a simple form (multipart/form-data as it has a file field) 
with simple insert action.  The insert with the file works fine; 
without the file still works fine; with sample data and real data 
works fine.  The final field is a textarea that is varchar(3900) in 
the db. I entered all sorts of stuff; fine. I edit and update; fine.

But when I try to enter one SPECIFIC record including the 402 chars 
textarea value of that item, the insert chokes -- and shows it is 
trying to enter TWO of every single field value in the previous form. 
I view source on the form... nothing weird; no dupes. Not just the 
textarea duplicated but the entire form.  Change merely the info in 
the textarea and it works -- if I just take out this one paragraph 
and replace it with any other paragraph, shorter or longer in chars, 
it works fine.  It's the same on edit/update.  Pasting in this ONE 
string to the textarea causes the whole form to try and duplicate 
insert, but all other strings pasted there instead work just fine.

There is nothing in the para to cause this that I can see.  Does 
anybody have any clue??  Thanks if so. (see below)

I can't imagine anything in this para doing it, but just for ref 
here's what it keeps choking on (no humor please ;-)):

I’ve known Joe from when he was a US Army remote viewer and I was a 
consultant to the SRI remote viewing project, when everything was 
classified and we couldn’t talk to anyone. I had the honor of writing 
the introduction to Joe’s book. Not only will you find solid 
information on remote viewing, including how to do it ideas, but 
you’ll find the author has a good heart. Highly accurate and very 
human.
