65K field limit

I have a listbox on a web form and it’s populated using @DbColumn. I’m hitting the 65K limit. Is there a way to overcome this problem.

There isn’t.

In some cases, I have used “sub dbcolumns”:

Use a field or the first letter of the field that you want (like year, o letters ABC…Z)

Choose an option in that field and then another field with @dblookupo that field in another view.

I have overcome the 64K problem with this technique:

Use an iframe (inline frame) on your web page. The inline frame displays/contains a Domino form. The form has some passthru html for a tag.

For example, if you have a view containing 3 values (say Apple, Banana, Melon) then program the view so that it contains:

Apple Banana Melon

when you embed the view on the form with the passthru HTML tags you end up with:

Put the form in an in-line frame.

Obviously this works for when there is more than 64K of values.

Good suggestion but the only problem here is that the number of embedded view entries that can be displayed is around 1000 lines. I need to display about 3000 lines of entries.

Also, i managed to get it to work with Firefox but not with IE…
