Hi,

I'm developing a theme and going to use the theme.info file to place my theme settings. The problem is that every time I put too many characters into string as in here:

settings[slides] = 'long html here........'

I get The connection was reset in Firefox (Error 101 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_RESET): Unknown error. in Chrome) upon refreshing. 'Too many' is 332 characters. No errors with any number less than 332.
What could be the problem? It looks like some PHP/MySQL configuration but what exactly.

My dev environment is Windows with Apache/PHP/MySQL installed on my own. Tried it with WAMP server and had the same problem.

I think the question is why the heck do you need 332+ chars for a setting? Its a "setting", as in BOOLEAN "true/false", "yes/no", "on/off", or "1/0", or something short like "blue/red/green". I think you are approaching this the wrong way, what are you trying to achieve?

What I'm trying to achieve is provide default html code for the user they can alter in their theme settings. To implement a slogan rotator for instance...
Anyway the problem is solved by reinstalling Apache and PHP. Both compiled with VC9 and PHP installed as CGI binary.
